Good morning Mr. Kriz,

I’m going to Seatrial this weekend. On the muffs in my driveway it is idling, throttling up and down better than it ever has since I have owned the boat. Will update once I run it on the water. I’m pretty sure it did.

I sprayed lube under the flywheel as I found a blog where someone said there is a bushing under the flywheel that gets corroded. I also took apart and cleaned the shift control assembly, Morse control, and cleansed all the old grease and regreased.

It’s running better than it ever has. Will repost after I run it on the water.

Billy
