    Reversed polarity

    I have this friend... he hooked up his 1960 Evinrude Lark II 40hp battery backwards. What a bonehead move right! Anyway, here is the situation. The motor ran with the polarity reversed. It stalled a few times, but generally ran pretty well. Gas was low so a run to the gas station and back...

    If it ain't broke should I fix it?

    Just bought a 1960 Evinrude Lark II 40 hp outboard out of some guys barn. He didn't have the history on it b/c it was the owners son-in-law selling stuff to clean the barn up. So I am not sure how much it has been used or even when the last time is was run. It seems in decent shape...
