The fuel mixture for an old Sears 5hp Eska boat motor typically requires a gasoline and two-stroke oil mixture, commonly at a ratio of 50:1. This means mixing 2.6 ounces of two-stroke oil with one gallon of gasoline. Always check the owner's manual for specific recommendations, as variations may exist depending on the model and year. It's important to use high-quality oil and fresh gasoline for optimal performance.
The Sears and Roebuck boat motor model number 217-586331 was manufactured by the company OMC (Outboard Marine Corporation). OMC produced various outboard motors for Sears under their brand, which were sold through Sears catalogs and retail stores. This model, like others from Sears, was part of their strategy to offer affordable boating options to consumers.
