1971 Evinrude 50 hp tell tale
My old '71 Evinrude 50 doesn't have a tell tale, however, I read an
article on the net that stated hooking up a tell tale is relatively simple. The article said there is a bolt on the cylinder head that leads directly to a water passage, that you remove this bolt and install a fitting to connect your tell tale hose. But he doesn't say where the bolt is located. I've searched the net trying to find where this bolt is located with no luck. I'm beginning to think this bolt is a figment of someones imagination. Any help will be greatly appreciated. |

It is usually a little louder until the exhaust mixes with water and is silenced at the exhaust reliefs at the rear of the leg below the powerhead. Water will run out of these ports nearly all the time at different rates and at different speeds. Just be aware of regular flow here... it will serve as your "tell-tale". Rob |
