[QUOTE="Bowhunter1661, post: 389279, member: 9937"] Well seeing as I purchased this motor used and have no idea of the service history, I decided to do a full and complete tune up. I just ordered a new water pump kit, thermostat kit, fuel pump kit, new (and pricy) fuel primer pump, plugs and wires as well as I plan on cleaning the carb. Hopefully this helps with the smoking issue. Once I thought about it the motor would only smoke after a few minutes of running, after that it was every time the motor would start it would smoke. Although I am not an advocate of just throwing parts at things, I often run long distances so piece of mind knowing all is well is worth a few extra bucks... [/QUOTE]
