[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 409786, member: 13975"] Man, I must be copying you...not only did I just buy those 2 1982 models, but I also bought a 67 9.5hp like you have as well! Mine runs out pretty good at WOT with the cover removed. I get about 15 mph @4800 rpms on a 1436 flat bottom with too short of a transom (making my prop slip go through the roof). Put the cover on and it loses a lot of power. Indications of an exhaust leak I believe. Back to your 15hp, turning the carb upside and blowing into the fuel inlet (as said above) is the best way to test the seat. When I set mine just right, i literally can not blow through it at all in that position. It helps when doing this if you put the fuel hose on to blow through too. [/QUOTE]
