[QUOTE="ClemsonAlum, post: 482427, member: 25296"] I have 2 of those 9.5's. That motor looks very clean. I would change the plugs to Champion J4C. Look at the plugs to see if they have rust just be sure water didn't get in the cylinders. I would spray some lubricant like Deep Creep in the cylinders too. Turn the motor over a few times, and let it soak at least for a few days before starting. Also change the water pump impeller. The thermostat cover is held in by three bolts, pop it off and take a look at the thermostat. I would go ahead and replace it too. Cheap insurance. Check out Lee Roys Ramblings website, 9.5 HP section. -Kurt [/QUOTE]
