I just got a 7.5 Sears Ted Williams clutch drive. The model number is 217-5889-0 and serial number is 3C176125. With some research I think it's 1973, but it's been hard to find much info.
I've only taken it out once with the fuel that was in it. It started up ok and ran at a slow speed/neutral, but with throttle it would cut out. Once I have the time, I'm going to replace with fresh fuel, and check the plug. I'm by no means a great mechanic, but am competent.
I've tried scouring this forum and other sites, but am having trouble finding info on this model, what fuel mix do I want? And plug type and gap? Anything else I should check and/or do as a start?
Thanks
