Anyone else remember when if you sat your phone down too hard the screen would break? It’s crazy how rugged they have become.

A little labor day car repairs, I should have just replaced it all for as far as i had to take it apart. Did both lower control arms on each side. I changed the inner and outer right tie rod a bit ago, need an alignment still. I am real tired of working on stuff right now lol.

Not sure what I did different. I put the battery in, pumped the throttle and saw fuel squirting out. I advanced the timing a little bit and it started up. I ran it for a few minutes. I got a little nervous that the thermostat might not be opening up. Unfortunately I think there might be some issues with the outdrive.

the motor is finally bolted into the boat. I am slowly getting all the hoses and wiring sorted out. I didn’t remove this engine and have never worked on a boat.

There is a shift linkage that i believe is supposed to interrupt spark when shifted between forward and reverse. no idea yet where that mounts. I have a mystery plug that goes to something I can’t find. It has a few pins and the distributor wiring goes to it, so probably pretty important.

I don’t even know if this motor will run, and I have a ton of stuff to figure out before I can try it.

And facebook marketplace provides again. $125 for both of these gems. The small cart is $130 new, the toolbox/cart is $280 new. These are used of course. The toolbox/cart is a lifesaver lol.

Spent my 4th putting actual ac in the shop, no more window unit. Air handler and coil were free off marketplace. Outdoor unit is one I had saved from when I did residential hvac. Lineset is left over from when I put the heat pump in the upstairs of my house.

It’s not to any code, but it isn’t going to burn my shop down. I was hoping to save some amps, but it about breaks even by the time I had to run the window unit and two fans.

In the future I will run some ductwork in the ceiling truss’s, but for now this will do.
