So when do you think you're going to be running?

Did something get twisted off in one of the bearings?
I haven't done anything with the engine yet. Seeing what a wreck the casale box was leads me to believe that may have been 99% or so of my problem. At least that's what I'm hoping. I do know it didn't like to turn by hand when I pulled it out, and that was without the resistance of the water and a spinning prop.

I'm shooting for a re-maiden voyage on Sunday.
Jordy, by looking at how he mantained the casale I'ed at least put a timming light on it before ya run it again.
Blower engines on pump gas with to much timming is not good.
Good point SD. I'm going to check it out. It's not running pumper gas though (although they do pump it out of the truck at the airport), so I have a little margin in that area. Yeah, with the condition of the casale, I'm about half tempted to call and see if there is anything else that I need to be concerned about. It supposedly had a fresh tuneup and was ready to go for the season. "Everything" had been run through and checked. I do know it has fresh oil and the plugs are fresh too. Beyond that, I suppose it's anyone's guess.
Jordy,
Could you at least bring a passenger along to take some pics....:boxed:
