Any photos?
Ok......I hate to interupt this tea party....but I've got a major problem...
powerhead hooked up, lower unit stabbed on, I realized I hadn't torqued
the lower mount bolts...(standard non-offshore housing)....one of the biatches stripped.....didn't make it to 120ft lbs.....I cut the nut off hoping
the bolt might be ok....NOT
The big question, do I attempt to grind the bolt head off, and replace the bolt
and nut in the reverse order, or do I have to pull the powerhead off and start all over? CRAPPOOLLLLAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any photos?

Thats okay we'll still help you. I actually turn those around when I change one so that it gives me easy access in case I need to pull it again for some other problem.

Just ordered bolts and nuts.....bolts shipping from new Jersey (are any of those parts stored locally?.....seems like never) I'll re-install reversed for sure!!
Added 1/16" dia. thermocouples this weekend. Used mega-$$$$ rifle-drilled bolts w/compression fittings........I can't see those thermocouples lasting more that a few hours...what kills them first, vibration or exhaust pulses?
I don't know, I use the heavier ones. I would imagine the exhaust would kill them fairly fast.
