I would but I can't afford to spend $175.. I am a college student.. I saw a good deal and the motor started great when I bought it last week but when my buddy and I went to run it, it started smoking and then I realized there was no water coming out the port holes.  The forward and reverse and everything works great on it.

Do a compression test before you spend money on parts... just to make sure you didnt hurt anything.

Take a look at this Troutkilla. Guy's name is Geoff Morrish. I watched this and then had some questions. He responded by email within 12 hrs even though he's in Australia. Great guy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiQNhFYFvdQ
