Cass went to Contadora with her dad for a few days and I=B4ve torn apart the boat.
I pulled the valve covers off along with the water pump, I=B4m determined to get more water flow. I=B4m also scraping and painting the motor as I go. If it looks better, it should work better right? I=B4m also trying to put in a electric oil change pump, but the plug on the pan is metric and I can not find any metric brass hardware here. I=B4ve been changing the oil by putting a hand pump down the dipstick tube (as recommended per Volvo), but it leaves about a quart of oil in the pan. I=B4m sure it is getting sludgie.
I also got my new shifter/throttle controle, and it is exactly what I wanted. It was quite the score on ebay for $80.00 new. I am deep in the boat project hurt locker and am looking forward to clawing my way out.
Peace, Love, and dirty hands.
