I guess I better ask this question first, what [#326aaf]position[/#326aaf] do you store you motor when you bring it home from a fishing trip? If you leave it up, that could be your problem, even though you have your boat stored inside the water that is trapped in the [#326aaf]impellar[/#326aaf] area will freeze there on you drive up and cause problems. Always store you motor with the foot down so all the water drains before your next trip. This is not as important during warm water months but getting in the habit of doing it is for those cold winter trips where any water left in the foot area will freeze. I just raise the foot before I leave. If you are already doing this, I guess this won't help[:/].
