Gotta start somewhere...Got me some goodies. Motor questions though.

[BigHE]

I read the comment that was here a bit ago, but then it was deleted.

First thing, please don't assume that I didn't ask questions before I did what I did. If I was doing something wrong let me know. Isn' t that the reason forums like these exist? I was doing what I was told to do, as I was told to do it. I even watched a few Youtube vids. Everyone may not be as knowledgeable as you. Seems like I may have been told to do something you don't agree with.

I was even told to do the comp test removing only one wire, which I thought was weird because the motor will run with a shot cylinder. Right?
You can hear me telling my son "I was just checking". One the way down to the boat I was telling him I thought that it was weird that the guy told me to remove only one wire at a time. After reading your post, he may have meant to say one plug at a time.

You kept stating that I didn't know what I was doing. That's obvious. I didn't. That why I ask the questions. I'm not offended or anything remotely close. I have very little experience under the cowling and that's why I bought an inexpensive motor. Hence the title, "Gotta start somewhere".

I've done water pumps before. Successfully I may add (still not an expert nor claim to be). Stating that I don't know anything about that is another assumption.

I appreciate your feedback. It was valuable. I don't know why it was deleted. I'm going to look into the process again. Thanks.
