Unfortunately, it’s hard to replace these parts and can be expensive, as its what you call an “engine rebuild”. This is easily preventable just by mixing the fuel and oil correctly.

You need to find and use a reliable unleaded fuel. There are specific things you need to look for. For instance, it should never comprise more than 10% ethanol. Why? more
Mixed fuel / 2 stroke oil mix, must be used within 30 days from the time it was mixed to ensure the fuel is stable and combustible. more
They are Pennzoil for Air Cooled Engines and Amsoil synthetic oil for 2-stroke engines. The Pennzoil is mixed at 50:1 while the Amsoil is mixed at 100:1. Some reports state that Pennzoil gives the best lubrication while Amsoil or synthetics give the least carbon buildup and tail feather deposits. here
The best 2 Stroke Outboard Oil is Pennzoil Premium Plus, which is designed to keep your engine running clean and mixes easily with fuel for premix.
One gallon of gasoline combined with 4 oz of two-cycle engine oil. If you are in the state of California, use a 2-cycle oil mix ratio of 40:1. [links]
Two-stroke oil (also referred to as two-cycle oil, 2-cycle oil, 2T oil, or 2-stroke oil) is a special type of motor oil intended for use in crankcase compression two-stroke engines. Unlike a four-stroke engine, whose crankcase is closed except for its ventilation system, a two-stroke engine uses the crankcase as part.
Other models require the user to mix the oil and fuel together in the outboard’s main fuel tank each time the fuel tank is topped up (this is known as a premix model) In addition to this you will need to know if your outboard’s oil/fuel mixture is either 50:1 or 100:1 so that the correct amount of oil is poured into the fuel tank. Too much oil can result in the spark plugs blackening up, the outboard running rough or very smoky. The table below will give you the correct measurements to hopefully prevent any problems. here
All two stroke outboards require an oil / fuel mixture when being used. The oil lubricates the crankcase bearings, pistons, rings etc. It is vital this procedure is carried out to prevent the outboard seizing.

Some outboards have a separate tank for the oil which will either be an internal tank attached to the outboard under its hood or an external tank. This is known as oil injected system which will require filling before or after each use.
Please note that the recommended oil for two strokes is TCW-3 outboard oil, the present cost being around £9.00 a Litre here
RPM Information: 4750-5250
Your engine's RPM range is important in choosing the right propeller for a given application. For example, if you look at your tachometer at top speed and it is not within the engine's RPM range then that is generally not good. You want your RPM's to be within the proper range while at wide open throttle (WOT). Be sure to do your testing under your normal boating conditions and with a good propeller (not bent, cracked, or excessively chipped). here
The iboats Outboard Motor Forums are another excellent source of information.
