Johnson V-4 need information

[roscottjr]

I have just acquired a Johnson V-4 outboard but I need some information on it such as year, fuel oil mix, compression, where to get parts, and any other information anyone can supply. If anyone has any idea I would also like to know about what type of fuel usage I can expect from this engine. The model number is V4ML-10R and the serial number is J2466921. Any information available would be greatly appreciated. Also I may be looking for a new foot for this one if I find that the engine runs good.<br /><br />Thanks in advance<br />Robert
