Does anybody know where to find information on these motors.  I just inherited an old 7.5 and I need to know gas mixtures and other info to get this thing running again.  I see that several people are interested in them on eBay no matter what the condition.  It sure seems like the compression is good and it might have a good shot at firing up.  Thanks in advance.

If anyone here is one of those people interested in these motors, PM me...I am not opposed to selling it either, just didn't want to throw it away.

http://www.geocities.com/scottmc9hp/  This guy has some links to other sites that might help. I was interested in your post because of the Ted Williams mention. My dad was a "Splendid Splinter" fan and people used to say he'd buy anything that his name was on. A friend of mine used to have a Ted Williams outboard and I forget what size, it was under 10hp I'm sure.

He still lives down the street and if I bump into I'll ask. We used to fish with it a lot and I don't really remember mixing the fuel.

There are some people that collect and rebuild old outboards and I'm sure they'd help out. I saw some on  the net when I was looking for antique lures. Google Search, I did one for "Ted Williams outboard manual" and found that one guys site and the eBay listings.

Ebay would be the place to look that's for sure.
