Howdy, Jerkinperch

Welcome to iboats.

You put this in the wrong place, so I moved it here.

Your engine was made for 1952 throught 1954. Your fuel mix is 24:1, Spark plugs Champion J6C (replaced J6J) gapped at .030" and mag points set at .020".

Joe Reeves is the master on explaining bow to set the mixtures, so I will let him do that. He should be along soon.

That is a really great little engine. Treat her well and she will please your grandchildren.
