In this video I do a few small things like reinforce the fiberglass where the engine control will be replaced, continue the water / fuel...

Переглядів 595Рік тому
I continue work in prepping the boat for the re-installation of the Yanmar Diesel engine, including patching some holes with fiberglass and an attempt to service the engine controller. There is little access behind the engine and fuel tank when installed, so I take advantage of their absence.

I found a used 1986 Mariner 2-stroke outboard on Craigslist for $50 here in the States. Will it run? I was told that the main trouble was that the handle is broken, but knowing little about 2-strokes I figured the price was good regardless of condition because I could learn a lot in any case. In this video I step through checking the possible big issues and test to see if it will run. If I can ...
