What is the fuel / oil mixture for an older 18 hp Johnson Seahorse? The original fuel tank indicates 25 to 1. I was advised by marine mechanic that 50 to 1 is what I should use given the "newer" mix oil developed. Also, what fuel / oil mixture do I use for a 1981 - 2 hp Johnson Seahorse?

model number is needed to determine year. Late 1950s thru 1963 is 24:1. Post 1963 is 50:1 using TCW-3.
