Sea King 6 Fuel-Oil mixture

[herbigCBR]

Hi there all. I recently inherited a boat that has Wards Sea King 6 on it. Model# VWB27906A Serial# 76X 1087. (1967 Chrysler made?) I'm just wondering if anyone can confirm what the fuel/oil ratio is supposed to be. From reading around on some posts around here I think it's supposed to be 16:1. Ive ran a tank of 16:1 thru it and it seems to run fine, but it smokes a little more than most older 2 strokes do which has me wondering. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I doubt if it's 16:1. Try asking your question in the Chrysler section...I'm sure they'll have an answer for you.

My info indicates 27906 is 69.Fuel mix is 24:1.Same for 66-68 use TCW3 rated oil.
