After running my engine and putting it away with the engine tilted i end up with a load of mixed fuel in the transom trough. If i leave it down for a few hours its not so bad. I noticed the airfilter is also missing, i have only had it for a few months but am thinking of a service soon. I assume it is coming from the carbies. Any ideas chaps. |

Hi,
OB's don't use air filters. No need for for them. Don't stress.
Normal for fuel to mess. Doesn't make sense, I know, but that's just how they rock.
Replace waterpump [impellor] soon as possible. |

How tricky is it to change the impellor. I wouldnt even know where to start but am pretty handy with a spanner. |

I highly recommend you get a manual. OEM manuals are more expensive but far superior to Seloc or Clymers. |
