Older Chrysler outboard motor

[tsaure]

I have an older 25 HP Chrysler outboard motor that hasn't been used in two years. Nothing was done when it was put away. I have 2 questions. 1st: Is there anything I should do, (other starting with fresh gas and oil) when I first start it back up?<br />2nd: What is the proper oil/gas mixture. Thanks!

50 to 1 change the lower unit oil and the impeller

In addition to what Norman said, drain the carb bowl.Remove the plugs,and shoot a 1 second burst of WD40 in the holes. This will keep the rings (which have sat in one place for 8 years),from sticking and breaking, or otherwise scoring the jug.<br />Good luck
