    I finally got the old 25 hp running great. It's out of the shop and the electrical issues I had reported earlier have been traced to a short in one of the points. Basically when it got hot, it shorted and fried a whole bunch of other stuff. But now my electric choke is locked up. I took it off and cannot get the cable to budge. Do they still make these? Preferably with more modern components? Aftermarket maybe? Or at the least, is this thing rebuildable? I just got the skiff back from the mechanic's and will begin posting pictures of this great little boat soon..

    Tight lines
