The Ole' monday damage report
I had a wedding Saturday and lousy weather Sunday but saw a friend of mine Sunday afternoon who was out just long enough to pop one of his 468's. Started running bad ...stopped and found an oil slick behind him...checked oil...looked like a milkshake
. Seems to be just a headgasket
Well he was coming out this weekend anyway.

I'm pleased to report:
Another successful weekend with -ZERO- problems or failures.

Havent pulled it a part yet but I had several hours of towing it home to ponder my lack of forward propultion 
Im pretty sure its a drive shaft
Thanks to OTTIS311 we were still able to maintain a 40+ mph cruise with out a drive
