Welcome N8te!<br /><br />That's a '69 33hp you've got there. Fuel/Oil mix is 50:1 87 octane gas to TC-W3 outboard oil and it takes Champion J4C (J4J is gone) plugs gapped at .030". Nice outboard - I've got a '65 33hp laid out on the workbench right now.

Start by pulling the plugs and squirting a little oil in there. Then turn the flywheel with your hands. If it turns, get a hold of a compression checker to make sure you've got a viable engine. If compression is good, then there can't be a whole lot wrong with it.<br />Tell us what you find!<br />PS - there's some maintanence you're going to have to do if it's viable. But no sense throwing money at it at this stage.

Yeah, there's Seloc and Clymers ones out there. Often you can get one from the local library too. They're the cheapest. Iboats sells the Seloc one - it's pretty good as far as the aftermarket manuals go. The factory ones are much better, but they're more expensive. Some times they turn up on ebay for 1/4 the price.<br />TheOutboardWizard<br />Mastertech<br />Marine Engine<br />Ken Cook <br />If you've got good compression, the engine is probably worth repairing. It would be a good idea to drain the lower unit oil and see if it's got water or metal chunks in it. The nice thing about these old OMC engines is that you can work on them pretty much without any special tools, and parts for them are cheap (as far as outboard parts go). The entire ignition system can be replaced for around $70 in parts, for example.<br /><br /><br />Hey, what luck!
