Need some info on a Sea king 64gg-9005.
Where can I get a manual, what kind of oil to mix with the gas what the ratio is and what sparkplug it takes. I just bought it from a estate sale any help would appreciated thanks

Is it a 12hp made by Gale?

I am seeking SAME info!! LOL. I did find from what was said to be the manual, actually found it here posted somewhere. I however cannot figure out which model is actually the one referring to the 64GG9005 (keeping in mind Im an idiot that is just learning). Here is the one I picked up a couple days ago. Goofy guy painted it (badly) but was really nice. Going to take her back down to a brushed look.

Very cool, I had one like it for my first motor at age 10... Had a rod knock and a family friend gave it to me for my old rowboat. My parents could hear me comming long before they could see me !! Ran that old motor for two years before trading it for a 5 hp of the same make. While a bit loud, she was still running when I traded it...Your pics brought back some great memories ! Thanks

What kind of oil do I mix with the gas

You can use modern TCW3 two cycle oil, far better than what was availiable back then. The original mix was probably 24-1, I have read where some folks use a 32-1 mix with the better/ modern oil....cant say for sure, so mabey an old motor rebuilder will chime in here...
