some are air cooled and some have cooling fins and a water pump also. I've got an old apachi (early 40's) 8 hp and its dual water and air cooled. sometimes they have just a large dounut with and oval shaped shaft that runs through the center hole that squishes water through it like squeezing it through your hand and they call that a pump. their kinda neet. and easy to change.
Fearedbyfish's dad has a funny expeerience that steered him away from clintons. he rented one at flaming gorge (I think) and was going along and all the sudden the boat stopped. the engine revved up and the boat just stopped. thinking that they had just broke a seer pin he went to lift the motor out of the water and check it out and the entire outdrive had fallen off.
just a funny story. D
