Hi I'm curious as to the main difference between the 3hp carb and the 4hp carb. On this motor the intake and reeds are the same for both 3and 4 horse engines. on the carburetor, Is it just jet size or both jet and venturi size? Thanks......Robert

What are you trying to do?

Noticing the difference between 3 and 4 HP is not practical or seen.

If you are looking at using a 4 HP carb, on a 3, for availability reasons-OK. As long as the linkage all works the same.

I sense a new 4 horse carb in your future. Those tiny motors need all the help they can get.

Na, all ready have the same motor in a four horse and there is not so much as a whiskers difference in performance, at least from what I could tell. I was just curious from a mechanic perspective. These are fishing trolling motors and not zoom fast motors. The three horse little gas tank even out last my stamina for fishing and has gone 5 hours trolling. Thanks for the responses.....Robert
