Hello!
Brand new here. I have a Gamefisher 7.5 model 217-585811 S/N 90 224179.
It was given to me nearly 25yrs ago. I ran it once in a 55gal drum, but never took it out to a lake. Now I'm closing in on retirement and am interested in getting this little engine working again. It sat in my garage covered in plastic, however I forgot to drain the old fuel out of it. The gas tank was rusted but not to awful. I used some rust remover and it worked great. I would love to get a carb kit for it. Before I can do that I need to know what year it is and any other information. The Dark green gas tank is the outer cover not one of those white cowling jobs. I have a 12ft pelican jon boat to mount it to. should work good on it.
Thanks for any and all info
RK

its a 1979. And all the carb kits are the same. The pink fuel pump element on the face of the carb that faces the power head has to be re-installed at 2 oclock. Look at the old one before you remove it.

Thank you very much Brim Buster, is your post pic from FB? Would they have a new impeller kit as well?
