Re: Bravo 1 outdrive with metal shavings on drain plug

What you want to give me for it? It only has about 70 hrs on it. It was never abused. Always ran synthetic. I would rather just buy a new one and not deal with what headaches come with rebuilds.

Sounds like you dropped a valve. Take the plugs out and see if any or damaged.

Re: Need paint quotes please.
