Re: What is the year & HP of this motor

Like OBJ said, you've got a '57 there bencat.<br />Evinrude Model 7522<br />Year: 1957<br />HP: 7.5<br />WOT RPMS: 4000<br />Displacement: 12.4 cu.in. = 203.2 ccm<br />Cylinders: 2<br />Weight: 59 lbs. = 26.8 Kg<br />Gear ratio: 15:26<br />Spark plugs: Champion J6C gapped at .030" (J6J is no longer available)<br />Fuel/Oil mix: 24:1 87 octane gas to TC-W3 rated outboard oil.<br />Lower unit oil: OMC/BRP 'HiVis' or equivelant 80/90W outboard gearcase oil.<br /><br />Athough those 7.5s are great engine they're known for throwing a rod if heavily abused. Stick with the 24:1 oil ratio and never rev up the engine in neutral.
