FishBones is all Smiles
 

Got the call from the marina today, she's ready.
Went down, the mechanic happened to be there so got a chance to talk to him.
Carbs were completely rebuilt, in line filter done.
But for you fellows who own a JohnnyRude a little info, part of my problem was under the fly wheel which the mechanic pulled. Seems that OMC in their infinite wisdom uses a coating on the stator area, that coating had dried out and almost melted, least that is how it looks. The plasticky looking crap got under my timing arm and was binding it up and not allowing it to move its full range.
He cleaned that all out to.
Results - perfect 750-800 rpm idle. Runs like a top, took her for a nice long run.
Fishes beware, Willy is in town!

Sweet post up some new pictures of the bad to the bone fishin machine.

Great!! You all set now! Mine is over getting the fuel injectors cleaned as we speak Then I be all set!

RWilson may be going out with me on Thursday. If we do get out I will get some pics then, now I have to focus on getting my trailer better set up or a new one and look out NJ Get Together here I come

Willy:

I would be suspicious that your motor gotten hot in the past? The only time I have seen a OMC stator coating melt is due to heat. I got really old junk that just is still just fine ;-)
