What happened to her ???

Re: my new engine
 

Merely a temporary set-back ;D ... you'll be out carvin' the water soon and all will be well ;) ...speedbump in the parkin' lot of life ;D ;D ;D ...

Re: my new engine
 

What are they doing to your engine?

What could possibly go wrong with a new unit to require
pulling it apart like that?

Had to be a factory defect and if so, hopefully they correct it.

Re: my new engine
 

No E-tec and now no Lumber Slinger ???

Whats up with that?

Whats the deal with the motor Lumber. Sorry to see it torn apart like that. :'(

Re: my new engine
 

For those that missed it - a "software" update was not applied to Slingers motor (I suppose by the dealer) and this caused one of the cylinders to run real lean and basically fried it....

Nothing like computers :-X

Re: my new engine
 

Hey Lumber, I see you fixed your clearance problme with the rodholders... ;D Little extreme mod there, don't ya think?

For all you guys that forgot, or missed it, Lumber had a thread up last week stating there was a problem and that a new powerhead was on the way from Bomb. Something about a missing software update and being overpropped as I recall. Bet he's out on the water this weekend ;)

Re: my new engine
 

Dayum. Hope they fix is soon.

Re: my new engine
 

To err is human, but to really foul things up, you need a computer. :)

Re: my new engine

I have to tell ya BRP has replaced the COMPLETE top end of this motor from what you see in the picture from there up is brand new , ( I wasnt expecting that) but the dealer said they are going to send the other head back to brp and they will take it apart and see what cause the problem in detail and see how they can improve on it.

Re: my new engine
 

Glad to hear it Slinger!

I agree, $20 a pop and I'd be going broke too :-/

I thought $15 was bad at Hatteras :-/ That sucks!

Re: my new engine
 

$20 for Delaware Bay Ramp, $8 for ICW ramp around me.

Re: my new engine
 

MULV, is that a private ramp?

Delaware has got public ramps all over the bay,
those are free.
I can name three off the top of my head,
Bowers beach, slaughter beach and Lewes canal,
all three have plenty of free parking.


Anyway, the campground where I keep my trailer
has water access and my ramp is included with my yearly lot rent.

Re: my new engine
 

You sure do have IMO the best motor available. Let us know what they found out.

All our ramps are free here. I go out an average of 3 times a week.
