Guys -

I'm in the process of shopping for a kicker motor for my boat... I have a chance at a Johnson J8RCNR for $350.

Can this motor be fitted for remote controls? I realize it's pull start. All I really want is remote throttle and shift, I'll steer by a link bar to my existing drive and start with the pull cord.

I'm guessing I'd need to use a separate fuel tank for this since it needs 50:1 fuel:eek:il mix and my tank is pure unleaded... or is there some way to fix this, like an in-line oil mixer?
