WIZARD 7.5 hp info please???? HELP!!!!

[wildcatgrandy]

I bought my husband an old outboard at a yard sale today for $1.00 (yes guys, a dollar)! It will act like it wants to crank up but my husband wants to perform some basic maintenance/tune up stuff first but we don't know model of this thing, it's old and little is left to read on it. Problem: The serial numbers are not legible. All I know is that it says it is a Wizard 7.5 hp by Western Auto (?) and it is a Tecumseh engine and there are these numbers on the side 1323-11. We need spark plugs etc. so any help i.e. the model this may be would be so appreciative! Thanks, Tami

Your motor was probably built by Eska.It uses<br />a Tecumseh power head Im guessing it is an AV750<br />or AV817.<br /> My manual only goes to 72 so im a little limited.If it is a standard mag type ignition it <br />uses points set at .020. J13Y (old number)plug<br /> set to .035. These numbers are the same through the all the Tecumseh unit block models that year.<br />16:1 fuel ratio 1/2 pt.of air cooled 2 stroke oil to a gallon.<br />You should really try to find a manual. Ebay is a good place to start.Youll probably end up with an after market manual My manual is an Abos and<br />it covers 60-72 many brands a little skimpy on <br />info. but adaquate.A small engine shop may be willing to supply info on the power head and should be able to get parts.My guess is <br /> NAPA auto parts may be able to do small engine parts as well.

If your model is a 6907A, it is the same as a 1959 Scott. If your model is a 6908 , it's the same as 1960-62 Scott. If your model is 6909, it's the same as a 1963-64 Scott.
