Evinrude Sportwin 3.3hp 4423

I just purchased this motor. I was hoping someone could give me some details regarding its performance and maybe some personal experience in restoring. Thanks

Hi, Cass.<br /><br />That model was built from 1947 to 1951.<br /><br />It is truly a wonderful little engine.<br /><br />Fuel mix is 24:1, 87 octane unleaded to TC-W3 outboard oil. Spark plugs are Champion J6C gapped at .030". Set the points at .020".<br /><br />Good luck.

I also just inhereted a similar engine and have some questions on it. The lower unit has a port (screw on the side) labeled "Grease". Would it be wise to use lower unit gear lube on this, or should I use marine grease? It appears my grandpa had used some form of marine grease to fill the lower unit. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
