THEY WERE VERY RELIABLE ENGINES YOU SHOULD DO A VERY THOUROUGH SERVICE ON THE ENGINE BEFORE PUTTING IT INTO SERVICE IF IT HAS BEEN SITTING VERY LONG EVEN IF IT HAS NOT IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE HISTORY ON THE MOTOR IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA AND COULD SAVE YOU SOME HEADACHES LATER DOWN THE ROAD I DO NOT HAVE MY YEAR MODEL GUIDE HANDY SO I CAN'T HELP YOU THERE RIHT NOW BUT ALL OF THE V-4'S OMC BUILT WERE EXCELLENT MOTORS

Swampmuzik, get a compression tester and see what the motor has to say about itself. Check and change gear lube, and impeller. Use fresh 87 octane and a quality TCW3 oil, and get an inline fuel filter/water seperator. Welcome to the board!
