Well I put it back in the water today and it ran OK, but the temp gauge has went from running at 1/4 gauge to 1/2 gauge on plane. It did have a full tank of gas and drinks and 4 people onboard with some decent swells out there. Not wanting to melt the powerhead, I brough it back in. Telltale is sputtering a little so I know it's time to replace that pump.
Going to give it another go today with prybars. What would happen if I tied the lower unit to a post and pulled lightly with the truck?
Will a shop touch a job like this and if they do, how much would it cost to have it done?
