Air Cooled Golden Jet 7HP

[gtojim]

I was woundering if anyone could tell me the fuel mixture for this motor. Also, there is A seperate fuel tank from the motor, but there is a filler cap on top of the motor too. Is this for oil or what? If its for oil, what kind do I use? Thanks, jim<br />Anyone know I could getminfo on this motor?<br />I would like to know the year too.<br />MN 1727A<br />SN 150481

I answered your guestion and it somehow ended up under "70 Johnson wiring quiz."<br /> Any way your motor is built by Eska and uses<br />a Tecumseh power head it is aircooled and the<br /> exhaust leg is water cooled. Most likely the motor has a built in gas tank as well as a<br />remote.See if you can find a model number for<br />the motor and the power head.Cant tell much without.

Ahoy, Jim.<br /><br />The Tecumseh air cooled powerhead is derived from their chainsaw engines.<br /><br />The correct oil is chainsaw oil, not TC-W3, to accomodate the higher temps. Depending on the model and seller's recommendations, you need either a 16:1 or a 24:1 mix.<br /><br />Good luck.
