[QUOTE="WMcGrath, post: 314632, member: 11363"] Also in regards to the motor. I checked the carb out just for safe measure and replace a few gaskets for peace of mind. It looked pretty clean already but I gave it a nice go before putting it back together. Spark plugs had a lot of oil built up on them, didn't seem to affect performance at all seeing how it only took a few pulls to start it cold but I replaced them too, again, just to be thorough. I replaced the pull start and rope because it had seen better days, still worked fine, but didn't want it to snap while I was on the water. Not sure how many of you guys have taken out a pull start, but I made what I'm assuming is a classic mistake of not holding down the spring coil. That was a pain to get back in place! The few screws and plugs missing I replaced and put a new idle speed adjustment on there and she's in perfect shape for the water. That's the last bit about the motor, I promise. [/QUOTE]
