thank god for twins!

I lost the port motor today on the Lake. I guess this is a lesson to pay attention to my guages more. it just burned up. I checked the guage when it was too late and it was at almost 200 deg. Thankfully we got back on the good motor. I had family on board too its so embarrassing when that crap happens. Oh well just an excuse to build a badass motor.

200 degrees won't overheat the motor? It could have been going further. Did you shut it off or did it quit?

I don't think 200 degrees would burn up a motor, more than likely something internal was siezing up.

It just quit, it turns over so its not siezed, It touyrns over fast like there is no compression. It also smelled like burnt oil. not sure whats up.
