Sorry for the late reply. That model number doesn't come up with anything, by chance is the model number 574.59520 - Hopefully you just typed in an extra 5. If so, it is a 1967, built by McCulloch. I found this information at http://tinyurl.com/6ktleu By the way, I don't feel sorry if you are running one of these :-), and some parts can even be found here at marineengine.com |

You will need to find the model number for your motor. Some of the older Tecumseh powered 7.5's used a 16:1 ratio, the newer Tecumseh powered ones used 50:1. I have a model 217.585840 (1980) that uses 50:1, while an Eska I have (Identical motors - Gamefisher was made by Eska for Sears) that is a couple years older is 32:1. There is a good chart at http://home.earthlink.net/~brixent/searsid.htm where you can look up your model and it gives you some good information, including fuel mixture. |

I need help on a Sears 7hp ted williams air cooled outboard. It is a tecumseh 6506913 and it has a T 639-10a. What plug does it use as there is no plug, and what fuel mix? This is my first time on the site so I hope this is the right place to ask this question. Thanks |

It's a 1968 7.5. See http://www.discount-marine-parts.com/ob_elgin_mcculloch_model.html Believe it or not, that is around the time Mcculloch suggested using 100:1 fuel/oil ratio in their motors. Maybe that's why there aren't a ton of them left. If it were mine, I'd mix it 40:1, just to be safe. |

Hey Joe, You'll probably get better info if you post in the Johnson/Evinrude section, but you can look at http://old-omc.de/e_1968/evin_1968.html and see if the motor looks like yours. Also, the model number would be a 9822, 9823, or 10822 if it's a 1968 |

Mr Joe you have made a quantumn leap into the 20th century.Keep that tuned up and good waterpumps and you'll never own another. Treat that starter like an egg shell though. |

Hello - some help please. I just purchased a 7.5 Ted Williams. I went to this site mentioned above - http://home.earthlink.net/~brixent/searsid.htm and can't find my model listed. The serial number is 277-58591. There is a number just below that as well - 218303. Can someone tell me where I can get information on the model I own. Thank you, |

Hi Ron, Your model number probably begins with "217" and can it possibly end with 561 or 541 or 531 or 521 or 511 ? Thank's....Bob |
