    So about a year ago i got my first boat, started watching your channel. As a car mechanic i figured it be no problem to work on outboards. Yea i was wrong. But because of your channel ive been able to learn. In the last year ive repaired over 30 outboards, and made some cash doing it. So just wanted to say thanks. I spend more time now on outboards than on cars and never been happier.

    When I hear you say “I haven’t seen anything like this” while cleaning a carburetor we all know it must be bad since you have cleaned many on your podcast. Great job getting them all up and running and looking good.

      It's because of the of the boat guy's personality, he is so relaxed and casual that it makes you relaxed and casual. it truly is the ZEN of outboard repair.

      Don't watch it. he's picking only some nice pieces (out of the ones he repairs daily) and mostly sells tools in "non located product advertisement" videos. He mostly cleans the boats dirty engines and boats. "I got an amazing deal on the engine. People don't know what they have..."
      No. People mostly do know what they have. He just sits in the business deep enough to get 1 or two such "amazing" deals per week.
      Go out buy an engine, clean it and it will be worth shit. Worn to death. I know I do it on my own. It doesn't look so easy in real life. It's not easy in real life just like all similar "great deals".

    I started watching (and immediately subscribed to) your channel a year ago for your restoration work on center-console boats. But-even though I'm not a mechanic-I really enjoy viewing, listening, and learning from your work on outboards. This session was/is terrific, in every respect. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and expertise with all of us who are addicted to small(ish) boats, Keep up the great work.

      make sure you do the thermostat and poppet valve grommets as per the service manual! not an easy job but easier if you have 3 hands:) starboard side ... if the cylinders get too hot must pull the powerhead and check the water deflectors in the block. if they are old and crusty they wont direct water up top. i tap a new indicator hose on the top starboard side to burp all the air out.

    I DO thoroughly enjoy these videos on motor repair! I just bought a 76 Starcraft with a "Series 402" Merc 40 hp motor. It's been raining here solid for 3 days since I bought it, but tomorrow is supposed to be the 1st of many nice days ahead and I have been itching to check everything out! The seller did start the motor when I saw it 1st time - (dry - I didn't like that!) so it will have water this time and hopefully the impeller is good - but if not - just will need to replace. I'm starting with just getting it to run up to temp and go through the gears and after that will determine if I need to do carb work etc. By the way, got the boat/motor/trailer package complete with depth finder, oars, safety equipment, bumpers, lights - everything - for just $700!!! I'm planning to completely refurbish and customize the boat to match my truck and all new graphics too! :-)
