Hello Donald, Your Seagull is a 1970 model, a Direct Drive Silver Century 4 hp. Noisy yes, there is no silencer, just a tube for the exhaust to nicely resonate in! There is a distinct pinging sound to a Seagull two stroking. However there can be clanking noises if the gearbox is run dry and the gears get worn and out of mesh! 140 grade oil, see the FAQ page. Runing on too lean an oil mix can cause trouble at the top end too! 10:1 mix unless it has been converted.... See also the FAQ page. I have the conversion jets readily available... Have fun, Regards, John SOS
