Oh hell yeah.   Definitely Mr. Impeller needs to be introduced to Mr. Angle grinder.  

When reinstalling just relocate shims like Griz says until the impeller starts scraping the cup, then back off one shim.  

At the hub of the impeller you can see how much material is missing from the leading edge.  When it gets much over 1/4" (let's say 3/8") then it's time to think about ordering a new impeller.  

The trigger coil is what rotates under the flywheel when the throttle is moved, it advances your ignition timing.  Be sure that at full throttle the trigger rotates fully against its stop.  

See, that "rebuild" wasn't a rebuild, was it?  😀

So I think this is an improvement. I saw no indication that the impeller was ever filed. The impeller may have been new and just "rode hard and put away wet."

The gap is less than a 1/16"between the I.D.  of the impeller housing and the O.D. of the impeller.

Turn your ball cap around it may blow off on the test ride.

I am going to the white river on Saturday. Hopefully it will be improved. If so the next thing I will need to do is convert it to an electric start.  I am getting too old to be yanking on a danged pull start.

Thanks again guys for all your advise.

Yes electric is nice but always be thinking of what extra stuff you increase load with. Batteries weigh a bunch. Do you plan on it in the back or front under that deck?

I have a trolling motor battery under the casting deck.
