[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 522501, member: 3278"] [B]I probably see more antique and vintage outboards running in a years time than a lot of you will see in ten years. The majority of smoke I see from the smaller outboards we have comes from a tendency to run improper air/fuel adjustments. Rich running. For example, I just finished a 1960 18hp for a friend of mine. Only gas I had available was a tank full of 20:1 that I run a 1957 5 1/2 on. Watch this short video and take a look at the smoke output from a properly adjusted idle mixture. The initial burst of "smoke" is steam from the re-start after running. [MEDIA=youtube]I2OP5A3xzU0[/MEDIA][/B] [/QUOTE]
