Motor help quick!

Need to get the 8hp evinrude up and running for Dale. I don't really know anything about motors. A while ago my pull rope broke and I need to replace it. Does anybody know how long it needs to be? The old one is frayed so bad I can not tell how long it was.

Hey joe I just replaced mine the other day. I just went to tractor supply and bought a 6' long piece and cut it to length. Make sure you buy an extra piece to use as an emergency. (wrap around the flywheel)

The OE cut length of the rope is 59 1/2 inches. This allows for any knots, or whatever fastening method is used on that starter.

You have a manual for that motor?
