"Un" rigging a Banana with a V8!

2 Attachment(s)

Mistake changing my Merc for this dinosaur? No, I don't think so. Especially not since I am getting my merc back.

Ruined my summer, but after removing and replacing the entire electrical system on this engine three times trying to get it to work, I learned more than I ever knew about outboard engines.

Thanks to MrV8outboard for all your help this summer.

The engine hoist that I borrowed from work was busted, so here is a documentary of how with enough beer you can accomplish anything.

:drink:

Like the $8.00 crate I made? I am building sides and a roof for it today.

How did you get the motor the upright position to the way it is in pic 2?

TIMBERRRRRRRRRRRRR! :eek:

Just kidding. :D

Actually, that was the hardest part. We both got underneath it and just walked it down.

Both our fingers almost got stuck as we were hovering it about an inch above the ground.
