[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 494328, member: 3278"] [B]So you bought a 9..5hp. Do yourself a favor and find an OEM carb kit while you can. Be careful of the upper mounts on those engines as well. You can check yours by grabbing the flywheel and pulling straight forward and rearward. Check the gearcase for water. I would imagine the dealer changed out the lube already so you will not be able to tell if it is leaking until it has had a trip or two on it. There is more to check and service on this engine as well but we can save that for later. I would run a bit of additional oil in the fuel as well. 32:1 or 40:1. OMC said run 50:1 on engines produced after 1964 but with older engines and 3-ring pistons it always is better to give them a bit more lubrication. [/B] [/QUOTE]
