Hi,

I just purchased a used 4 hp, 2-cycle Mariner 4M, year unknown and
without manual. I've some basic questions. The marking on the engine
says 6E0 S 105164 and Made in Japan.

1. what info can I derived from this (make of year)?
2. how can i find out its year. (I'd like to get a manual).
3. how much 2-cycle oil should I add to 1 gal. of gas?
4. can someone point me to some basic outboard maintaince resources?

thanks.

1988. Almost any Nissan/Tohatsu/Merc/Mariner info will do, they are
all the same in this size & series or close. The O-manuals only have
the real basic & stupid stuff, don't waste your money for paper it's a
$200 motor, save it for repair parts (expensive).
