I have the same.motor got it last year for a kayak for fun. Uh, it doesnt idle well and it bogs down rabdomly and quite a disappointment. I want to dig in one of these days, clean those exhaust ports, maybe an exhaust hose and maybe check inpeller then carb. I'd love a helping hand! Maybe I post a video if it running then.dying.and maybe someone knowledgable can save my life!
That impeller is intact, but rock hard and no good. You want to change these every 3-7 years depending on how much its used.
The impeller was bad. It's hard and set, replace it.
those are worth there weight in gold, pump lots of money into it!
how do we change the bottom end oil, my 2hp has only one bolt, the other motors I have worked on have a fill hole and level hole.
Thanks Ray
That impeller is not good and an impeller is your water pump
