seems that the new policy going forward for all engines sales is that the seller provide some KY jelly to help with screwing they are giving

if you look at the one photo with the freeze plug is missing you can see the others that had tried to push themselves out also…
I feel your pain. Had the same issue that cost me $$ to fix. I believe the seller was unaware in my situation, but in the end, I got too excited and went forward with the deal. local guy here made it right for me though. Engines are strong and dependable so far.

there’s a nice man on here I won’t mention his name that has offered his services on helping me figure out things and has been a great help to me along the way from the get go on all of this. I gotta find some freaking time to get them out of the boat again but once they are out I’m headed his way at a high rate of speed.
