Read his last two posts, a miracle happens he can type.... Where on earth has anyone typed the start of a sentence with "k" ????? So you thought he was abbreviating the word "ok"?????

You have ignored every reasonable request to clean up your act, but yet you still have the nerve to ask everyone to help you and expect the same level of help after you blatantly defy all these requests. The sad part is if you really were interested in our recommendations, there is a wealth of knowledge on this forum and I can assure you that your situation (mechanically speaking) is nothing new or out of the realm of most on this forum. My recommendation might be to put your tail between your legs and clean up you communication skills, and start asking specific and concise questions that will possibly save you a ton of money.
 
larry chill out what is your problem? what requst have i ignored? i pulled exhaust i done pressure test on heads i got a new motor... look iam just trying to get this boat fixed and it has already cost me more than i want to even think bout ...but iam to much into it to sink it and not enough into it to run it.. i see nothing wrong with my communication i have no problem reading or understanding none of this is this a forum or a college english spelling class? get a life and if thats all you have to say go some were else and talk that crap:smt038
 
How about this picture? It's a bullcrap detector. I lifted it from a fellow forum member.

Have the mechanic check your bellows while he is doing your engine.
Also, Pick up a service manual for your engine/drive.
Not the best, But SELOC has a cheap one. 35.00 compared to 100.00 for a OEM service manual.
You can look at the pictures and have an idea of what makes your boat tic. You can even get a free West Marine catalog. It shows a lot of rigging and proper marine setups.
You also get to look at lots of high dollar marine parts that go bad.
Is this your first boat?
