The new decal on my circa 1916 Wisconsin Model M rbm
says to mix the gas, “One part oil to 30 parts fuel”.
Does this sound correct?
I would have thought something this old would have
been much richer.

Prepare to be boarded!

Interestingly, that’s correct according to the original decal, which can be seen on cailleoutboards.com/rowboat/Wisconsin/wisconsin-decals.html.

Personally, I’d go richer than that.

Thanks Tom, I’ll use some 16:1 I have mixed up.

P.S. – None of the post this morning are showing up as “NEW”……..
