Checking Craiglist I found a 1988 Merc with a rebuilt power head asking $900.00. Called the guy up and when he gives me his address, he’s three blocks south of me off the main avenue. Motor is OK; check compression and all cylinders at 115-117 psi. No spark on three cylinders (figured is the power packs) and he sold it to me $700.00. Anyway, he brought his boat to my house, helped me remove my motor and replace it with his. Except for my blown power head, I’ve got spares for everything. I will be going to work on it today and hopefully the spark issue can be resolved by exchanging the power parks.

The beauty of having a parts engine, it's a wonderful thing.

Well gentleman, I'm happy (as a pig in mud) to report that after changing the CDIs, she started right up. Good idle, good pee and I was so happy that I've been drinking rum and bar-b-quin ribs since 4:30pm. I figured that I can get back to the details sometime during the week. The real rabbit...can I have her ready for labor day weekend? Yes I can!
 And to make things even better, it's a northern motor from Ohio, no rust at all! Anyway, the Bacardi and I thank you all, because when you're down, misery is bad but loneliness is the pits. I'm glad to be part of a group of friends like the V20 community and proud of the moral support we give each other day to day. Thanks! PS. If any of you guys come through my town (Miami), do not hesitate to call on me if I can be of help. 10-7
