    Happy Holidays to you to ! the 4hp is a great learner engine. In a tub don't run it to fast because the prop generates lots of air bubbles and impeeds cooling after a while. replace oils and impeller before testing. it should spit water out look up utubes lots of them... here is one :-)

    Max Throttle on 1995 Evinrude E150 GLEOM
