Default 1956 Evinrude Fastwin Gas/Oil Ratio

Please help, I have scoured over posts, but can't find my gas to oil mix. The motor serial number is 15016-14092. I see gas to oil mix ratios for 18 hp fastwins, but not sure if it is the same for my 15hp Evinrude.

Should run fine with 24:1 gas:oil ratio. Use TCW-3 oil for best results.

According to http://www.evinrude.com/en-US/About.Us/FAQ/Oil.Fuel.htm motors from 1958 and earlier should run on 20:1 but if the bearings are suitable some can be run on 24:1 .
