I was wondering if anyone could direct me to someone who has a prop for a 1959 Evinrude Lightwin. I broke one of the blades off recently and will be needing a new one. I appreciate any help I can get on this Thanks Rick

The 24:1 ratio was for when the oil used was 30 weight motor oil. When using TC-W3 outboard motor oil a 50:1 ratio is recomended. This is 2.56 ounces per gallon of gas. An easy mix is one pint of oil to six gallon of fuel. (this is "oil rich" by two ounces over the six gallon mix) If breaking in a new or rebuilt engin, one whould run twice the oil to the mixture (one quart oil to six gallons of gas) for the first ten hours.
