    Cool!  Sounds like you found a good repair shop that was honest and reasonable.  Plan on doing a water pump job next winter if you plan to keep the engine for all the reasons I mentioned.

    OK, well the Merc oil looks fine.  You would use approximately 1/2 pint of that oil mixed the 2.6 gallons of fuel.  Please remember to use the fuel stabilizer as well.

    I’m glad this engine is working out for you.  I know I presented many “cons” to these engines, but I still like them.  A little extra maintenance will keep it running for years.
