Purchase 1958 OMC Johnson Evinrude 50 hp Distributor Cap Outboard Motor 580292 in Cooperstown, New York, United States, for US $37.99

I bought this 20 years ago because my motor was not running. I bought this part New in the box you see (from the dealer in Utica, NY) and my motor still did not run properly. Sometimes it ran OK and other times it just would not run at all. I used this part until I discovered what the problem was. It turned out to be a small wire was grounding out, touching the inside of the distributor and there was no problem with the cap at all. So I fixed the wire and the motor ran fine, but by then I had 'used' this part so I could not return it, but I did not use it any further but kept it in the box for a spare. There are some scratches on it from being used for just a part of one season. (It took me awhile to finally figure out what was causing the problem). I eventually sold the motor but still have this functional original part.
I bought this for my outboard motor that was a 1958 V4 Evinrude 50 HP. I do not know if the part works for other motors but I know it worked on this one (That is the same as a Johnson).
If you have any questions please ask before bidding. I want to make sure you are happy with the item before it arrives at your home. Thanks, George.
