1950-51 johnson made an outboard motor. ??? 5 hp,??? there were three different model numbers TN 25, TN 26, TN27. Iam mainly looking to find the fuel-oil ratio for the TN26. But was wondering if you might know if they were all the same Fuel ratio. any help would be very helpful. |

I need to know the fuel-oil ratio for a 1955 Johnson Outboard 10hp. The model # is QD-16 or 194555. If any one could help that would be great. |

Hey Gordon. 1/2 pint to the gallon (16:1) TCW-3 Some people will tell you that with today's oil you can go with a thinner mixture, but I wouldn't recommend it myself as there aren't any nice roller bearings etc that were in the newer motors, and the oil keeps the metal parts from scraping together. I have had the exact same model (as well as several other Johnson's from the same era) since the late 70's and it still runs great. |

I was given a 2004 Mercury 15 EH outboard weighing about 76.5 lbs, max rpm 6000. There is no fuel / oil ratio information listed on the motor itself and I have no manual to go with it. Can anyone tell me what the proper fuel/oil ratio is? |

Hey Ben, Your motor was made by the Gale division of OMC. The specs say to use 1/2 pint to the gallon (16:1). Some will say it's ok to mix it thinner with today's oils (24:1), but don't get too carried away, that old motor needs oil. I recommend keeping it at 16:1. When new, it called for a J-6J plug, which has since been replaced by a J-6c, gapped at .030. Point gap is .020. I hope this helped. |

http://home.earthlink.net/~brixent/Model21759980-585861.htm It's a 1977. Use 50:1 TCW-3 (yes, TCW oil due to the water cooled leg). The RJ13Y has been replaced by the RJ12YC. Points should be set at .020. I hope this helps. |

Think it has oil injection, but to get a real answer you can go to the discussion headings and find Johnson evinrude and at the very top of the first discussion is an "start new discussion" button where you can start a new thread of your own. It's the only draw back I've seen here is that feature. Wayne all those air-cooled get chainsaw oil. They run so hot the TCW just goes away. The "water cooling" only keeps the bottom bearing and seal from melting. Then the pump only runs when it's in gear! |
