Your motor is a 1958 5 horse. It is water cooled, and should be mixed 24:1 with TCW-3 oil.
Original plug was J6-J (replaced by JC-C), gapped at .030. Use SAE90 gear oil in the bottom end.
Good luck. |

This is the best place to find out info on old SeaKing motors. Click on link, then select your brand on the left side. You can find out more about your model at this site. Repair manuals are available at this site too...

Try Evinrude or Johnson parts too! They work with this motor.Don't ask shops for SeaKing parts, they;ll look at you crosseyed. Ask for parts from Evinrude and Johnson that are comparable. You may have to take the part in to get a perfect fit. |
