Yes, a gas can can explode if you shoot it because the impact can create a spark that ignites the flammable gas inside.
That is normal. That gas would fire if the plug was in.
No, it is not safe to shoot a gas tank as it can cause an explosion and serious harm to yourself and others.
What would the gas oil mixture be for 1974mercury 7.5 HP outboardmotor?
yes, a mixture of coolant and gas can and will ruin your motor
Horsepower is horsepower, so a 16 hp electric motor could, on the surface, replace a 16 hp gas motor. Things to consider, however, include RPM and torque. Gas engines are inefficient, to replace a 16 hp gas engine it would take only a 8 hp electric. standard closest size would be a 10 hp. I have done this several times on air compressors and hydraulic pumps.
Yes
If they dissolved they would plug up the fuel filter.
I'd guess a broken motor mount. Releasing the gas pedal would change the rpm of the engine, so you may be feeling the motor shifting as a jerk.
A gas motor.
