I have great running Johnson 3 Hp, JW-17 outboard motor I resently acquired. The decal on the motor recommends either S.A.E 30 wt oil or Outboard oil to be mixed with the gas. What kind of Outboard oil do you recommend? I'm sure synthetic oil was not around in the sixties, it's seems that is all that is on the shelfs now a days! Will unleaded gas do any harm (10% ethenol)? Thanks.

I've created a page where you can have an article about motors and what you did to fix them up. Please e-mail your pictures and article/description to tom@outboard-boat-motor-repair.com and I will place it on this site for everyone to enjoy. The link is off our main page.
