I would be such a pain in the ass you would want to kill yourself. Sell it and buy a sportwerks 26 for $130.

Its meant to be a boat engine, and its hp could be a little higher. Go for it if you want a challenge, but because its meant to be water cooled, my guess is youd be hot pretty fast thanks to that tiny head

Sell it for $100, and get the RG by O.S. The non pullstart is only $109 and would blister the RG-M.
