[QUOTE="BloodStone, post: 375895, member: 826"] [size=5]Questions to ask yourself... 1) How big is the boat you're putting the 2hp on? 2) How old is your main motor compared to the 2hp ob? Does both the main & 2hp use a single fuel line with a primer bulb or is it the older pressurized tank, 2 hose set up)? 3) Is your main motor the same make as the 2hp so if you need to you can just hook the fuel line up to the 2hp & away you go, or would you need a separate gas tank to accommodate the 2hp? Same fuel connections? 4) Would your needs maybe be met with an electric trolling motor instead? I have a 1972 2hp Evinrude with a built in 1/2 gallon gas tank on my 15' semi-V & use it to troll all the time, no problem.[/size] [/QUOTE]
