[QUOTE="Tim Murphy, post: 284350, member: 9229"] Dear Board, I'm going to go look at a used motor tomorrow to use as a kicker on my rig. If it checks out I'm planning on bringing it home. The seller says it's decaled with a fuel/oil ratio of 100:1 but as I research the engine on the internet I see information that says 50:1? https://www.marineengine.com/boat-forum/showthread.php?220573-1986-Evinrude-6-HP-yachtwin-questions My question is will I hurt the engine if I run the 50:1 mix that I use for my 1982 Evinrude 35HP through the smaller motor? I'd rather not buy another tank and hose assembly if it can be avoided but I don't want to damage the smaller motor either. Thanks in advance, Tim Murphy :D [/QUOTE]
