[QUOTE="Beanpole, post: 440327, member: 22676"] Thanks for the reply. I thought about pulling the power head but right now it will be last resort. If I cut the tube shorter at the bottom I don't think I will be able to make the offset bends to line up with the water pump. The tube would be all up inside the exhaust housing and the shift rod is in there too. I squirted some penetrating oil up where it goes into the grommet. I'll try again in a couple of days.
