A buddy of mine has an old 15hp sea king.Cant remember the fuel mix ratio.It used 30 wt motor oil.I was thinking a pint to six gallons but could be wrong.Any of you know for sure.Also was this a Chrysler built engine or would I have to run the # to see? Thnks

I'd be surprised if it Wasn't 50:1.... which I believe is about one pint per 6 gallons.... have you done an internet search??

No idea who made those bad boys.... :smile:

I had a 15HP Sea King once upon a time. It was an '84 model and ran 50:1.
It was also a major P.O.S., and if I remember right it was made by Chrysler, with help from OMC.
I should write a thank-you note to the scumwad that stole it off my transom. I replaced it with a Merc.

I had an old(57) 25 horse Sea King on my boat, I bought it from a guy that buys old motors, rebuilds them, and then sells them and he told me that they were manufactured by Evinrude for Monkey Ward's. The 57 used a 50:1 ratio on the "2-CYCLE" oil, so if it's newer than that it should too.
