Any time you buy a used OB it's best to do an impeller replacement.
As for it stalling it sounds like you may have an air leak in the fuel line, bulb or connectors.
Man, that is a heavily populated piece of water.
Only other ramp I could see was across from the public dock.
It is at the float plane base/ canoe club.
Doesn't really get you any closer though.
Winter keeps going and going...............
Well it looks like we are going to be able to drive out on the lake for another few weeks after checking out the lake and the long range forecast. Last year @ this time the temps were +6C every day. This morning it was -22C with a stiff North wind bringing the windchill into the mid -30's!!!! It's not going to get above freezing for another week.
