Is there any benefit/problem with using a prop cover to prevent rain, birdcrap and any other debree from creating a mother nature soup in the prop hub? When stowed my engine is almost horizontal and provides an attractive target.
Looking to replace my 90hp Force with a 70hp Yamy. I know the cables, tilt and trim have to go. What other types of problems might I run into? Will the transom holes still work?
My 94 Force 90hp was recently rebuilt by a reputable mechanic because the #2 piston melted. All three pistons were replaced and no other damage was noted. Ran fine for approx 20 hrs then threw the #3 rod threw the side of the crankcase. Is it worth replacing the powerhead at over $2k or scrap...
