Message: <blockquote data-quote="Piomarine" data-source="post: 474844" data-attributes="member: 16014"><p>Largely unimportant motor news update...I used my fathers day privilege to work out in the garage and FINALLY get a couple of motor stands built (one for the Lark, and one for my '57 Evinrude Sportwin 10HP). I built them a little taller than the plans called for to give me easier access to work on them without bending over at funny angles; it also gave me enough vertical clearance that I should (knock on wood) be able to drop the lower unit without too much of a fight (but that's a project for another day). After I finished cleaning up my mess in the garage, in order to get the wife's car back in the garage, I grabbed a screwdriver and pulled the oil plug on the lower unit...unfortunately, just oil residue.  Otherwise it was dry as a bone. So once I have decent access to my work bench I will start tearing into this thing for real!</p></blockquote><p></p>
