Looking for a good midwest shop that can do it right the first time. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Just had my eliminator out to check out the newly installed lower unit and not a good day. The boat ran ok but not great. On the way back to the marina felt the boat drop and seem to loose power, all the gagues looked ok but it was obvious that something was wrong.
Got it home and the first cylinder I check had zero and the rest were 120lbs. Pulled the head and have a hole in the top clyinder starboard side. Head is not in the best shape either and these are the old 809 heads.
These are twin 1989 225 Johnsons on a fresh rebuild. I didn't even check the port motor, one was enough for today. lol
PS The lower unit did just fine
