Hello,
I am new to this site,anyway I just purchased a 1972 9.8.2 cyl merc that apparently was in dry storage most o fit's life.It looks brand new,even the insulation and vinyl inside cover is like new.What is the proper fuel mix for the engine?and does anyone have any tips or pointers of what to check before starting it.Also any opinions on these engines...good ? bad?
I looked up the serial # 3263926 and with the 110 on the cover it looks like it is a 1972?
Thanks,Ron Indian Lk,NY
