Fuel mixture, 140HP 1978 Evinrude
Hello all,
I don't have a manual for my 1978 140HP 1632cc Evinrude (model 140843c). Anyone know the fuel/oil ratio? Also, is there anything else I should be lubing?
Thanks!
Nick

And that's the correct answer in my opinion as well. Now please don't ask what brand of TCW-3 2 stroke oil you should use !!!! or you will get really confused by the answers !!! LOL
