It's a '74 4 horse, but I don't have a book or specs.

.020" point gap max. Flywheel nut torque is 35 ft lbs <br />Champion J6C (Canadian Tire has 'em) replacing the old J6J, gapped at .030". Weedless gear drive.<br /><br />Great little engine! Original fuel/oil mix is 50:1 87 octane gas and TC-W3 outboard oil, but I run mine with about 32:1 for very good reasons. Check out the oil mix FAQ in the FAQ forum for details.
