[QUOTE="Root Rat, post: 502379, member: 25991"] Hey Pappy, so as far as teaching me how to know the drives are in gear it might be a bit. I have decided that since the Jack wagon that sold me this motor in such yucky shape, i need to take it all apart. I have the motor off and the exhaust housing almost apart now. This thing is DIRTY and needs cleaned. On top of that the baffle gasket is junk!!! Looks like he used RTV silicone between them. It's coming off in chunks and there is debris all over. I'll be up to my elbows just trying to clean this thing... 😞 and lord only knows what else I will find? Or miss as all I know to look for is if all the parts are here according to the diagrams. I have the gear case all cleaned up and painted with 4 coats of Clear coat. Painted it white and have the gasket rebuild kit ready. I might put it back together this weekend. Still debating that, and or if I should buy a set of lowers. Found some on Ebay for around $200. Some many things to look at and do... [/QUOTE]
