I think that wizard is a mid to late seventies eska I don't know if it's a Tecumseh powerhead or if esca did their own powerhead I've got a Sears version 15 horse it looks very similar.
Wilco, you would think out of all the impeller that are made you could match one up, even if you had to cut the blades or make a bushing for the shaft. You need to make one up so, you can put the wizard back in the water. You see Mr. ITB is keeping his projects going. I bet one of an old Mercury would fit.
I'm sorry, i don't think the WIZARD is from the 70's more late 50's or 60's. Remember it was Western Auto that sold them and they went out business in the early late 60's.

It says Elsa on the frame and Tecumseh on the motor. Do you have an impeller number for me. It needs one!
@@OutboardMotorFun funny you asked that's what I need for mine as well!

@@TJD656 I'm sure you could come up with something a little time on a lathe and a bit of filing but I've got so many other projects 🤪
I know the feeling on the projects. Hey that's what keeps us going.
One think Wizards were very fast, out run all other outboards with the same horse power. Except for MERCURYS that's because MecKieffer built them.
the one on the right is a Tecumseh powerhead - Eska made the rest i think.

one on the right is a mid 70's and we had Western Auto down here in Texas until at least the early 80's...
