Figure id toss up what im doing to my lil baby.
Well we had a heavy rain fall few weeks back. I woke up to a picture from a neighbor said Bassey sank. Crap. Called a friend he got he pumped out for me.
Now the starter turns like poop. I blew the water out of the bottom 2 cylinders and i sprayed some penetrant lube in there. So since I never pulled the carbs the 5 years I've had her its time to along with the impeller and lower end change. I may have lost spark to when I tried real fast grounding out a spark wire. Ill worry bout that come spring or if we have the beginnings of a mild winter.
Today pull starter and carbs ill clean em out at work.
For some reason can't post pics here id show her half sunk and the beginning of my 1977 70hp johnson maintenance. Been a great motor to me. Always started until well she sunk my fault for not checking in the pouring rain.
