TC-W3 at 50:1 is this correct or chainsaw oil at 20:1 ?
Anyone know what year this engine was made? It seems to push my 10 ft jonboat along ok, but not alot of speed .
thanks

I've run TC-W3 at 50:1 in my 3HP Gamefisher/Tanaka for 25+years with no problems. I also run the Ringfree in the gas since the rings in my old motor due tend to stick in the grooves some. Of course it's real easy to pop that little cylinder off and free up the rings with some carb cleaner and a small wire brush. Good Luck!
