Hello my name is Dave.
I have a johnson-evinrude 75 hp engine model # E75TLCRD sn# J0402475.
I would like to know what year it is. I think it is a 1984 75 hp 3 cylinder engine. I completely in the dark on Boat engines. This is my first boat. My borther in law gave it to me and told me good luck. I have had it runing in the driveway with the ears hooked up to a water hose. But I Don't know what gas mixture is. I put 32 to 1 in it to start it. Would someone with knowledge please help me out? I don't want to get stranded in the middle of the lake. Thanks A Lot.

Ty Joe for geting back to me so quickly. Also was wondering. The boat has been sitting for a while and I called the local marina and a guy there told me to run some c-foam threw it ???? Is that a good idea. Also do you recomend purchasing a new tank and fuel line for it ?
