i took the little boat out today, and the motor quit well before i was ready to. it just bogged down and shut off.
i have good plugs and strong spark on both cylinders, so i suspect the carbs need cleaned out. i have done this before on some old omc 4 cylinders, but never on a suzuki. is the process similar?

well, i put the carb kit in, and it seems mu problem is resolved. now its not peeing at all(yes i cleaned out the hole). I guess the carb problem happened at a good time, or i may have overheated her yesterday.

now i'm gonna research the impeller change.
