Did AS ever answer you on how he's doing fishing?

TWO THINGS:

1-Why/how can ya wait to splash the Big "E"?? your brass kahunas must be machined to a finer tolerance than mine ... I'da had to run to the water straight from the dealer ::) ...

2-Slot popped a nice post in the Fishin' Sec...take a look ;) ... 8) ...

We were going to drop it in last Monday but the winds had picked up so we thought we'd do it yesterday. Yesterday both Dan and I worked. Today I'm going to Grand Rapids to celebrate my aunt and uncle's 65th anniversary. Maybe Monday or Tuesday, theboat's at Dan's 26 miles away from my house and the lake. Billy Mac ;D

Mac,

Be careful when you throw the throttle on that e-tec the first time, if you do it like you used to have to with the Force, you will end up throwing someone out of the boat.

And you and REEl are both DAWGS.

Thanks RB for the advice. *Dave at the boat store did warn us of how the E-Tec starts and stops. *He said everyone should be seated. *Thanks and I believe I have the Force sold though Craigslist. *Billy Mac *;D

Did Dave have any opinions about the No-Break-In period needed for the E-Tecs??...

When they set the motor up and had it running by using the computer he had extra oil injected. *Also the first three hours not ten the computer will double oil it over 2000 Rs. *It then goes back to normal. *When we splash it the first time, he said to take it to the top end 5300 to 5800 so that he knows it has the right prop. *He also said don't be afraid to run it. *BRP stands behind their products. *If you do blow a head, he can't trouble shoot it. *He pulls the head and BRP sends out a brand new one. *I'll have to be like a pilot " Ladies and gentlemen please fasten your seat belts!" *Billy Mac *;D

No doubt! ;D Just make sure everything is put away/battened down, and that your top is secure!

The first time I had my new engine wide open it scared me -- I thought we were going airborne!
