just something to check for if you slip your boat in a river or lake that has zebra mussles. Our boat is slipped in red wing,MN. on the mississippi,after i took it out of slip for winter storage, i checked out lower unit condition and changed oil,i was shocked to find the plastic water inlet on both sides on lower unit had little zebra mussles attached inside.they where probably cutting off about 1/4 of water intake on each side. i didnt notice any high temps while running motor though.just something to check if you are in a zebra m.area:thumbsup:
