I do understand that you make these videos to help people but you also make them for the same reason everybody does, to attract views and subscribers for you to make a profit. As you should if you're providing something beneficial, which you are. But there are way too many videos that mislead people by claiming on the title something that isnt in the video and in this case your title is definitely misleading. Sure in part 2 there is, then again why is there a part 2 when it could all be in one video. If I had the same engine and year etc which I dont its probably a useful video but its annoying when you're looking for something specific and you spend the time looking for it based on the title and its not there. Maybe you should update the title or combine the two parts. I appreciate your reply.

    The two sets of linkage are reversed. The one you have at the front should be at the back or engine side and is the throttle shaft. The linkage you have at the back is the choke linkage and should be at the front or wing /fender side.

    Front turn signal/parking lamps on backwards. I ,too, restored the 3 blade fan on my 1963 B.. then I put it in a box on the shelf and installed a plastic, yellow, seven blade fan. No more fear of the three blade dislodging and going through the bonnet. Equally important, and the original objective, much improved cooling and less noise and lower weight.

    • @albabmg

    Replacing the head gasket on a Tohatsu 9.8, in researching head gasket sealants I came across some strong recommendations, NOT to use copper based sealants as they will corrode the aluminum block and head surfaces.
