[QUOTE="hercdrvrwo, post: 323649, member: 11885"] Ok, SO my thought process was this: 1. I need to epoxy these floors with 3 coats a. Its high traffic and I want a thick base for the high traffic area b. I know I am putting a removable rubber floor in after but I wanted it solid Jeopardy song playing the the background.... So While I was doing the epoxy thing I got a wild hair and tore into my Engine ('86 Evinrude 30 HP Electric start)-- WOW don't do that! Its expensive and time consuming but here's why I did it... a. I did it because I was having trouble starting it this last season. b. AAHHHhh what the hell!!Its a restore right! I replaced the: Carburetor Fuel Pump Fuel Lines Lube'd the Gear Case Prop Seal Prop Throttle on the Tiller Choke I added: Paint -- I couldn't wait to see what my color was going to look like since I couldn't find a good picture on the internet (so many are so different D2 the cameras used) Fuel Filter Fuel Line Quick Release system (My old one was hard wired in and 5200 was all over the engine from previous owner) [/QUOTE]
