She's alive!-sweet smelling 225 2 stroke!

[nepatsfanatic]

Finally got all of the rigging together, hooked up gauges, and checked everything out with the new manual. She fired up on first keying which amazed me, had to clear her throat of fogging oil a little and then smoothed right out...What a sound!...

as soon as they pass a law that a man can legally marry a 2-stroke... I'm there!

I think she needs a new impeller though, tried hose at full pressure on muffs, didn't get a hot alarm, had water flow at telltale, no water pressure at gauge, very little warm water at exhaust, removed gauge feed pipe and had barely any flow? I removed both stats and had same results, except obviously the engine never warmed up. Checked the stats in hot water..both good.

Am I on the right track? (new impeller..not the marriage!)
