    Little known salt water impeller housing

    Thanks for the post I'm in fresh so guessing I don't need, but heavier duty sounds good. My comment is; you said the impeller is five blade (not 6 like regular). Guessing when the impeller needs replacing, can it be found easy enough

    Aq271c Engine wont rev past 2000rpm

    02 4.3l carb strange fuel problem
