Great engine which I have used often for the past 7 years. The engine is very sensitive to dirty fuel. The first year I had the engine I was ready trash it until I carefully cleaned the fuel tank and filter. Since then, I have made sure the fuel I put in the tank is free of water and dirt, it has been very reliable for my inflatable tender.
