quote FrankR:
Is the screen in the main water intake aft of the prop? Is the bypass cover in place on the side of the gearcase? Crud of that size shouldn’t be able to get through those two items.
Everything is in its place and looks good FrankR. The really weird part is that the crud was only in the pipe running down the rear of the head. Nothing anywhere else. Not even one strand of grass. Absolutely clean. I blew out all the passages I couldn’t see with compressed air. Air was passing through everything well. From both directions.
Oh, the plug of grass/crud that I blew out was about 2x the size of the one in the pic. Glad I didn’t have it the hole pointed at my face. I wasn’t able to dig it out but 110 lbs of air sent it flying. Hit the ceiling of the garage.
