The .020 is usually stamped right on the flywheel.

Again, thanks everyone for all your help. A friend bought 2 motors off some guy, for $200. The other one was a 20hp Mercury and it wasn't running either. He said if I could get the 20 hp running he would give my this old 7.5. The 20 ph is already on his old boat. Wow, it's pretty old but I think it's still worth messing with. Just gotta get a new carb on here and it will be running just fine!
