    That’s what got me started working on my own motors back in the late 70s. I took my ’67 Yachtwin to an “expert” at a local marina to get it running right, and it came back running not much better. When I took it back to him, he said it was too old and just wouldn’t run right because it was worn out……I knew that was BS because I knew the history of the motor…it was like brand new. I took it apart and found that gasket missing, I put one in and it ran perfect. I never took an older motor back to a marina….they just don’t care, but they will still take you money.
