1969 Johnson 20 carb and impeller help please

[FishinJoe]

Please excuse me for I have never had an outboard apart before some of this might be stupid. First, the impeller kit iboats sells doesn't look like it includes any seals, is this all I need to replace the impeller? And second, I am looking to rebuild my carb. If I order the http://www.iboats.com/mall/partfind...gd_poid=109344&gd_row=30&**********=055003593
is that all I need? It doesn't appear to have any jets should I just clean them and reinstall? I am not new to motors or mechanics just outboards so any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Changing the impeller does not involve any seal work.

Carburetor jets are not part of carburetor kits. Unless damaged, simply clean and reinstall them.

Thanks a million for the quick response. I bought this motor last year, it ran fine just trying to get a little smoother idle out of it. Besides changing the lower oil I have done nothing, anything you can recommend? Ignition wise? Thanks!
