[QUOTE="He Reigns, post: 351626, member: 14103"] A couple updates, the caps were missing off the bearing buddies so I cleaned up the outsides and installed new caps. I will tear them apart and inspect at a later date. I ran into an acquaintance who had an old boat he ran a couple years ago. He said the motor stuck in gear and he parked it. He thought it may have been the gear control cable., either way he said he will bring the whole boat to my house at the end of the week and I can have the motor and controls. If I get it running good and am happy I owe him a couple hundred dollars. It's a 55 hp evinrude with a prop. I know what you are thinking, this is the jet boat forum, so bear with me, this boat will have a jet eventually. Just having a prop motor will give me access to 50% of what we can fish. Plus I could sell the motor to help fund a jet later. I have a family get together Saturday and it mother's day on Sunday so I'll work on it when I can. Hoping the old boy pulls through with that motor. [/QUOTE]
