New here, quick question

[icsmike]

First of all, hello!

I have a 1964 Johnson Seahorse 15HP (FD-10 I think). Its the old red and white one.
I have original tank that came with it, it does run.

Whats the value on this? Its in very good condition other than some slight oxidation on the cover. Thanks a bunch!

FD-10 is a 1956, Mike.

A 1964 10HP would be a FD-18.

Any value depends on running condition. There is no "collector" value as there are still hundreds in daily use.

The difference is important. Please confirm which FD model it is because the fuel mix is different, the recommended spark plug is different, the fuel supply is different.

NOT 32:1.

Manufacturer calls for 24:1, BRP calls for 24:1
