[editboi]

[comitfam]

how fast can it go?

[SmokeyandtheBandit77]

@comitfam i had one on a little 8 ft hydro and got it up to around 32-35...there potent little motors

[Peabody182]

what a GREAT place to live! i would love to be able to have transportation on a river in a boat like that! go to parks up the river! go to stores and stuff, all up river!

how awsome!

[joninnj]

Great Vid, good fun, I think you need some carb work though, should not need to run with it choked... Nice!

[kevinwohljr]

thats what my boat motor dose when you put the choke all the way in

[cpgixxer]

It shouldn't, you have a dirty carb if that's the case

[Buglemintoday]

Nice Engine that is a classic

Everyone on the web is a prick saying the Pedo stuff.

[funnyduck4]

[30GB]

noober

[bluehighlighterfreak]

yeah they go from the ground to the water to the park to the dock to the park to the band to the boat to running out of gas

[bluehighlighterfreak]

one thing you'll notice is that none of those kids had life preservers on. i respect you for that man.

[XbenX0101]

wtf this guy is a pedo

[beserk23456]

So every nice guy who's good with children is a pedo? your an idiot.

[Etrician55]

lmao

[deanprigg]

First thing I thought when I started watching this is "this guy's a teacher". We have teachers in my family. Bright kids, nice production. thanks

[IRONSEAN7]

would you like to ride in my van with no windows?

[weeman1018]

pedifile.

[beserk23456]

Idiot.

[dwiggs77]

its funny that those old 2 strokes took 10w30 motor oil in the gas, a long time before we had tcw3 2 cycle motor oil. it probably smoked like all hell. come to think of it,i didn't see any smoke coming from that one

[xboxdude360]

they just dont make like they use to.

[honkeytonker]

I have seen a lot of KG7's give modern 20 horse power outboards a good spankin on hydros

[pimprobots]

NO There is no difference h20poloattacker.

but it also depends how the engine has been treated, maintained, oiled, greased and serviced.

for example

i got a 1950 engine and i have never maintained it it would not go as quick as the newer one will.

it all depends on how it has been treated over the last couple of years

[h2opoloattacker]

is there any difference in performance of an old engine and a new one? like a new 15 hp engine and a 90s 15 hp engine, will there be a big difference or not? please reply someone.

[armeniantilidie]

im guessing u can rely on the new one more just because its new u know and im guessing it will have more fuel afficency.

[alectraproject]

Simple really! All Hp ratings are at the prop so 1950 15Hp is 2007 15 Hp. There is, however, a marked increase in efficiency and lots less vibration, noise, maintenance and pollution these days.

[daniel216]

i got a 1976 johnson 25hp and it pushes my 14foot fiberglass boat well! about 40mph

[318magnum]

cool vid, do you think a 1975 9.9 evinrude will push a 16' aluminum boat ok? or not enough power?

[pennnamebooks]

If you are alone in the boat - OK. If you have more than yourself it would be weak I think.

[318magnum]

thanks for the info

[Droodely]

my uncles's got a 1960ish 9.5 motor and it pushes our aluminm boat just fine, so with a 9.9 hp, you should be totally fine

[DakoTaMe]

i bet it will go so slow it won't even be fun.....if you went in a river with it......ha good luck getting up it....in the missouri river you have to at least have a 15hp to get up river at least...so i'd say not enough power

[cpgixxer]

@318magnum Throw a 15hp carb on it
