I got the motor back from the engine shop on Friday. Still warm from the test stand. Installed in the engine bay on Saturday and fired up on Sunday morning . Motor sounds good and has real good oil pressure. It is getting late in the year, in TN,and the marina's closest to me are not open on Sunday , so I could not go far - low fuel
.I will be able to fuel up next Saturday A.M. and get some hours in before time to winterize . May be able to sneek in a few more weekends.
The rebuild shop owner stood behind his work , and found and showed me the mistake they made. No cost to me , just time .
Pulling the big M in and out is more of a chore than most , but all went well - lake level , parked cars etc. I wish I had access to the large boat lifts I see around on the facebook site.
I started here as newbie about 4 years ago , I have learned so much information on these awesome boats right here on the Forum .
I will help pass on any info I can to help the other members , just ask.
Doing the work yourself , while frustrating at times, is the best medicine in the world.
I will update after next weekends break in hours. - Scott
