Greetings all,<br />Just picked up this motor...trying to revitalize it for my Grandad and his buddy to use fishin'. Light-weight is good when yer pushin' 92 years.<br /><br />Anyway, it's a 1972 Ted Williams/Sears 7.0 hp, model #217-58870. Now, after popping about online I've found that much out, and that's it (I'm an Evinrude guy, and so are all my manuals).<br /><br />Considering the vast knowledge base to be found here, I figured it was the place to ask about the mysteries of the Ted Williams...<br /><br />1) plug # and gap?<br />2) fuel/oil mix ratio, and should it get TCW-3 marine or something like pennzoil air-cooled, or stihl oil, etc.?<br />3) Hi-vis for the lower-lube, or something else. How much?<br />4) and finally....since this is (I guess) an air-cooled tecumseh powerhead, when Grandad and his fishin' bud fire it off out of the water to "see how it's running," nothing is going to get damaged (like my 'rude impellers do, etc.), correct?<br /><br />Thanks in advance, the advice is greatly appreciated.
