what color is the outside of the cowling. This can tell you with in a couple of years when it was made. I owned a 9.8 that was black with red markings. The mix was a pint to five gallons. It trolled better with mercury oil. I found out from a friend that if i mix a pint to six gallons it would cured my low end problem with any good mixing oil.<br /><br />Markcv
