Re: why won't muffs work?

i have heard of this phenomenon quite a bit... some motors and impellars just preffere being submerged.. my 140 V4 does OK on uffs but a huge diffenence on the water and it pees quicker from the start where the muffs seem to take a few more seconds...

its all good

I ran into the same issue with my 25 Johnson, I was told that I need a special attachment because of that particular year that the motor was built. Hopefully some of the members here can weigh in on this.
