1967 Fastwin 18 hp evinrude

I was curious as to the proper oil to gas mix to the old gal. I have a 6 gallon metal evinrude tank. Can't out the proper mix, but I also have a Johnson 6 gal tank that says 1 Qt. to 6gal. Please help. Trying to get it in the water after 12 years.

Thanks, Bill

That gas tank is much older than your motor. Ever since 1964, Johnsons and Evinrudes use a 50:1 fuel-oil mix - one pint of TC-W3 oil to 6 gallons of gas.

The Evinrude 18 was built for a long time and got its roots from the earlier 15hp and then eventually evolved to the 25 in later years.
