Motor repair update....


Recommended Posts

Well for anyone that cares... Or remembers my previous threads about issues I was having with my motor...

 

While I was fixing problems with the work I was doing... Little did I know there was another problem developing...

 

My head gasket went...

 

This is part of the reason I was having such a hard time diagnosing all the issues... Because there was multiple problems...

 

So in the end I took my motor to a mechanic and he found my compression was out of whack... And water in my oil.... So it should be the head gasket... Wich is a pricy fix...

 

Good news is the mechanic is a friend of my brother and is putting a rush on it for me... I dropped it off Sunday and they were working on it Monday morning....

 

I'm hoping it's ready for the this weekend... Long weekend and I have to prefish for a tourney next weekend...

It's a father/son operation... And I'm pretty sure the old man used to teach the small engine course at the college... And the son is a race car driver... So combined they know their stuff...

 

Sounds like your in good hands Mike:good:
