Yeah when I was a kid back in the early 60s and going fishing with my dad we had a motor like that and we called it the puddle jumper but I remember him putting it in a big barrel and clamping it and and let it run and stuff like that before fishing season start oh yeah good little motor!!!
the reason the fuel / oil mixture ratio is lower today than it was then has to do with the quality of the oil they had available. I run a few vintage homelite that are marked as 16:1 SAE30, and I use modern two stroke oil 32:1 ratio with no issues.
I would love 1of these super old motors. I would absolutely use it… It is small. Portable. I would hook it up to an old johnboat and hit the little lakes.
It has a rubber water impeller, behind the prop.
Cool work
It did run last year. His other car is a Delorean …
Just thought I'd share that story of a childhood memory

Why not take off the fuel shutoff valve? Wouldn't that have made it super easy to drain the tank?
