MOTOR IS OUT

[Skools Out]

oh it's aight lol. I trying to talk a guy out of a bracket at the coast. It's on a destroyed 2400 Aqua Sport. I hope he will let me get it, if so i'll post pics and let you guys make offers. It's an Armstrong with a 225 Johnson.

40 min?? How many people working with you??
There is no way you got to the rear bolts, and the outdrive in 40 min!!!
Takes that long to figure it out, and get set up!!

But none the less you got it out!! and thats the hard part!!

make sure you replace the engine coupler before you re assemble!! Sucks when you add new power get it in the water and bam you blow the old worn out coupler and have to pull the motor again!!

See if you can get a aluminum
Don't forget to get the alignment tool when you reinstall! Got to make sure its straight or you are going to have problems down the road!!

God Luck!!

LOL, aluminumn Oil Pan When mine rotted out I got one. Cause I did not want ton pull the motor anymore then I had to.

Also hows the mounting holes for the front mount?? This is a rot spot on most? You might eaither have to replace the ply there or fill with something and redriil the hole.

two are good two soft i was going to fill holes with epoxy and drill and use new lag bolts

[macojoe]

Better then the new oil pan, how about getting it LineX ?? That should last for ever!!

I just try to think of all while it is out!! I hate doing things 10 times.

Check that mount arear where the motor mounts go, I had a little softness in a couple of spots and ended up putting stringers in.
