Hello guys
I just got a 1973 Chrysler 6HP outboard and have a few questions for you more experienced guys.......just to pick up some things before I screw something up, I want to mention I read posts on the forum and picked a few things up.
Now first my motor says 7 HP on the cover but on the inside label it says 6HP and Model 62BE canadian engine....so if it is a 6HP why cover says 7HP ?
Now I read from the forum the oil ratio is 50:1 TCW3...it is correct? and also what gas octane to use? 87/89 or 92?
I have a bit of an issue with the fuel connector, can t find one, the owner said is similar with the Suzuki one, I went to BasPro shop and they did not have any.
Do you guys have any tips or things to watch out for? The engine was started the last time 2 months ago by the owner .
Are they good motors? I want to put it on a 12 foot jon boat fiberglass.....I hope that is enough power to push 2 adults and one kid ......~420 pounds
