If it has not been running in a long time get a can of OMC Internal engine
cleaner and fog it out. Run your first tank of fuel with a 20:1 ratio as a break-in mix. "sts" wrote in message oups.com... Hi- I recently came into a 81 Mercury 7.5 outboard, minus owner's manual.does anyone know what the proper fuel/oil ratio is required for this motor? |

Thanks John - The motor was started a few weeks ago, but I don't trust
the fuel it was run on. It ran very smothly but produced qite a bit of smoke. I ran al the fuel out of the engine and as soon as I have disposed of the old fuel I will try that cleaner. |

You can get the manual (and many parts) from the factory
