Re: what happens when a mechanic rushes…

Yea, I’ve had some interesting experiences with that particular area of a motor. I picked up a 1957 Evinrude Fleetwin that drove the mechanics nuts. They went through the motor and surfaced the head and everything. It turned out, that the inner plate had a pin hole in it and water was spraying into the lower exhaust port at high RPM’s. I made a new plate and the problem was solved. That incident was what led me to make the stainless inner exhaust plates for those models.
