Howdy, SWJ.<br /><br />Your little Johnny is a 1956, and one of the greatest, smoothest li'l engines EVER.<br /><br />Don't know about the 'Rude, but someone will be along any minute now.<br /><br />Good luck.

The 'Rude's a '56 7.5hp. Also a great old motor, but you've gotta keep the oil ratio on the high side. I run 24:1 in mine...<br />- Scott
