yeah its a hell of a find, doesn't look like it's ever been used. i really think you should go fishin' with it before you sell it.
What pre mix should I use to start this motor?

initially start it on 25:1 or so. this is because you dont know how long its been sitting.
then you can back off 35:1 or 40:1 with modern TCW3, or leave it at 25:1 if oil quality is unknown.
i run all 2-stroke outboards at 40:1 personally
they were originally spec'd for 24:1 mix, however oil has gotten a lot better.
If it were originally spec'd with 24:1 then that's the proper ratio to get the proper air to fuel ratio. A mixture of less oil and more gas will result in a richer AFR and conversely more oil less fuel will lean the AFRs. Think of it this way, there is only so much oil/fuel that can go through a fixed orifice (carb jet), so if more oil is going through less fuel makes it way through as a result. Unless you decide to change the jetting, or it isn't jetted properly, then keep close to the original ratio no matter the oil being used. It is a common misconception that more oil will make it "richer" it's quite the opposite.

egale mark you need to try that motor out so we can have a good fishing store
those old ones share a lot of parts with old lawnboy yard equipment (which was a johnson/evinrude product until the 90s i think). im sure there's a lawnmower out there somewhere with the same carb.
