        I have two of them, both have been good runners hard to find impellers for them now.

          I altered this OMC impeller for my Fleetwin 4443

            I have two of them, 50 & 53. Both run good. New pumps installed. New coils, updated 50 to modern OMC coils. I would sell for $125. The 50 has the vent in the tank,not the fuel cap. Just the cost of parts really, they are fun little motors, I just have to find homes for some of these.

              Buc, what’s that impeller fit and what did you do to make it work? I have a ‘53.

                The OMC number is on the photo, but I have not idea what the intended application was.
                It was three years ago that I worked on my Fleetwin, and the memory of my impeller
                retrofit has left the brain!

                  squierka, I used an impeller from a 5 1/2hp OMC motor. You have to sand it on both sides and bore out the center hole a little. I used a small belt sander and made sure to grind it down evenly on both sides. Check your progress in the water pump housing. Take your time, it was easy! Mine pumps like crazy.
