So today my friend and I tried to replace the impeller on this motor and watched a few videos on how to do it. Seemed pretty easy. Well the damn thing won't start now. The only issue I see is a small fuel leak near the underside of the carb. Upon putting it in water and pulling the start cord we noticed that the prop would spin when pulled and it wants to start but doesn't. Any ideas I can give you more info
