I like it. I could get a ratchet to my stand and squirt a little PB Blaster on it every day. I could even weld a little bracket onto the stand (I welded it together out of 2 inch tube steel so that would be an easy modification). But the goal is to FIX it so it does not seize up again while I'm underway... I can remove the powerhead easily enough. Well, it might not be easy but I have an engine hoist so its not like I have to invest in any equipment. Just want to know if its worth doing. I guess the compression test will tell me that. Will post back in a day or two with real numbers instead of what I remember doing a year ago! [EDIT] If i only have to remove the lower unit as you say, which I was planning on doing anyway, for the reason you said, then maybe it won't be half-bad.
