"Where to find model number for a Sears 7 HP "Ted Williams" outboard? I found a number on top of the part that clamps to the transom, on a plate riveted to the casting, # 164041 but this doesn't seem to match the xxx.xxxxxxx format it "should" have.
How do I identify what motor this is so I can get more info on it? Where should the "model" number be?
Also, it has a sticker by the integral gas tank that warns NOT to use unleaded gas. If this is, indeed, a 2 stroke engine, what harm would unleaded gas do? My understanding is unleaded gas was bad for 4 stroke engines in that the valves were lubricated/cooled or something by the lead in the gas.
Thanks,
Rich"
