ran outta lite tonite before I got to take her for a spin...dang mech. wouldn't come back..when he did he smiled all the way back to his truck. I couldn't ask for a better riding boat for where I go..even 12' sea's/with white caps were nothing.........with luck she'll only need spark plug's..I'll keep your in mind..txs.

I'm real happy she is running well for you - Glad you (and the Mech) like the motor! Work looks awesome

what year is that motor?

reason i ask is it looks like an older vx76*?
should be a little splatter out the back of that rear port when running.
poppet valve might be clogged? sand will do that in no time.
that would explane the strait pipe sound.
pisser stream looks good.
