[QUOTE="fakirone, post: 358698, member: 14476"] I ran the dial on mine this weekend and I am .051 off, the tolerance according to the manual is .006. So, considering that the shaft is slightly twisted as well, I ordered a new one today, $309, ouch. Since my impeller disintegrated, over heating my engine, which caused me to break off 6 bolts replacing the exhaust and cylinder cover gaskets, as well as both side reed, carb and powerhead base gaskets, I am now about $600 into this motor. That being said I have 130-125 compression, a new prop shaft, a complete gear case re-seal and impeller and the thing runs fantastic. I guess it could have been worse. [/QUOTE]
