        Spark plug would be Champion J6C or even better NGK B6S. Prop pitch will depend on your boat size and load.

          It is a 14′ sylvan sea snapper deep v aluminum boat. the props they recommend when i punch in my info is a 9 diameter and a 9 pitch does that sound about right?

            Kind of like fortune telling with a crystal ball. The motor came with a 9 X 11 prop which was felt would be ok for the average boat the motor was apt to be used on. I don’t know as I would drop clear down to a 9 X 9, but what do I know?

                I got a few I have had a long time but can always use a few more going into retirement.

                  I have a 53 super fastwin. Great motor! I think it has a 9X10 prop on it. Pushes my 14′ MirroCraft about 21/22 MPH. Helps if I lighten the boat up some she might do a little better. They run great!
