Pull the flywheel and check the coils on the stator. My early 70's 'Rude
snowmobile used to have those coils expand and crack. Same as some of those
vintage O/B's. I got a couple of replacements off wrecking yard rudes.

I grew up around snowmobiles, and never saw an Evinrude one. Do you
have any pictures, or links? I'd like to take a look at this Evinrude
snowmobile.
