geeze... you treat your hardware with logic that makes stupidity seem like a virtue...

let that macho flow... at the same rate the dollars leave your wallet
I don't half ass anything. I will not pull a engine for one ping and look for a problem. When I pull the engine it will be because it NEEDS to come out and I will come back bigger and badder. Its people like you that sit on the shore not wanting to use your boat for fear of breaking down or braking something that cost money that need to stay out of the boating world. IT COST MONEY!!!!!!!!!! Come out of retirement and get a job so you too can come out and play or stay on the porch.
