[QUOTE="cajuncook1, post: 218875, member: 2832"] Your model number 574.60080 is listed as 7.6hp (not 7.5hp...interesting wonder if it is a typo...any hoo) Year of motor is 1961. Manufacturer of the motor is Scott. I know it is an Eglin and sold by Sears. So, your best bet to gain motor literature would be to seek out Scott literature. Here is a website that has a list of various outboard with condense manuals. https://www.agott.com/glassboat/manuals.html https://www.agott.com/glassboat/Manuals/Elgin.pdf Digging around, I found that your fuel to oil ratio would be about 16:1. Another source listed as 20:1. That (16:1) is about 8 ounce of any TWC-3 2 cycle oil with 1 gallon of 87 octane grade gas. Good luck [/QUOTE]
