Montgomery Ward.. Seaking... Force... West bend/Chrysler..What is it??

[BOCKAPHOBIA]

Model # VWB19073a Serial # 56XC13307. Cannot pinpoint the year of make.. and Which one of these it was made by. A great amount of help would be greatly appreciated!!.

On the motor it says SEA KING MADE BY MONTGOMERY WARD. but alot of guys in the other outboard forum say its a West Bend/Chrysler. I see nothing relating to Chrysler or West bend... But..... The motor has been repainted and could be hiding the info I need. THanks guys for any info.

BOCK.

I mainly need to get the fuel/oil ratio to take it out. It runs.. Then where I could get parts in case of break down would be a bonus..

The model number is the giveaway, Bock. VWB means West Bend.

If it was built before 1965 it was West Bend, after that Chrysler bought out West Bend, so it was built by the same people under a different brand name.

Fuel mix is 50:1.

Wasn't all this explained in the Other Outboards Forum?? We are the same guys in both (actually all) outboard forums.
