Walleye72 Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 That's really great news that it's not more serious. I was surprised that so many people were sure it was a write off. Now you'll get to enjoy your holiday with your own boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 I thought seized all along,oil pump/injector not working right. $200, is a steal compared what we all thought it may be. Good for you ,on again by the weekend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmer Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 That was good news for sure. It's always scary bringing in an outboard for repairs. Have fun on the holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 tone z71 Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Dara how many hrs on it ? Bearing on top of gear case or bottom of power head ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneak_e_pete Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Glad to hear its nothing major! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dara Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Bearing in bottom...I was low on bottom end lube for some reason. I filled it in the fall but possibly didn't get enough in. I will watch that more carefully from now on. So, bearing, seals, impeller because it was apart anyway, and a new prop because I was getting bad cavitation gouges in the old one so may as well, total $550.00 plus taxes..lesson learned I guess but its back to me in less than a week and I can go on vacation Thanks to Blind river boat works...gotta give em a plug and thanks for the well wishes on here guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
