I Just Bought This Outboard From A Friend Of Mine. I Was Wondering What Kind Of Gear Oil Should I Use And What Is The Proper Fuel And Oil Ratio. This Is The 7.5 HP Tecumseh PowerHead

The gear lube plain-jane 90 wt gear oil. I think the ratio is 50:1 because the crank has needle bearings. Bet you're going to have to kit the carb. Don't turn it over without grounding the plug or the plug wire, you'll burn down the solid state ignition, and you gon't want that.

Is There Anywhere I Could Download The User Manual In Pdf Format. And What Kit Are You Talking about For The Carb?

It's not a pre-assembled kit - you have to put it together. Enter your model number here to get part numbers;

I'd get these parts;
bowl o-ring, needle and seat, fuel pump element, flapper valve, flapper valve gasket, pump impeller

Avoid aftermarket gaskets, they'll change your timing. Get your part numbers together and order parts from here;

Results for Eska - Sears / Ted Wms

or call these people;

VinParts

That's where Sears gets their parts anyway, and unlike Sears, they are not shipping rapists. The plug is an Champion J13Y gapped at .030". As for literature, join here - eskaoutboards : Eska Outboards Group

Do you know if the spark plug is the same for the 5hp version of this motor? Thanx in advance!
