Yeah, its now vibrating slightly since one magnet is now missing. Can I take all that off without pulling the motor apart?
I think the motor sounds pretty strong and idles down nicely. However, I can't run it anymore since the el'cheapo starter from ebay is now hanging on the flywheel and kept the engine running when I turned the key off. (That's somewhat scary!)
Yep, the exhaust vibrated loose right about then Rich.
I'm not expecting this motor to go in the boat before getting it rebuilt. You know that the 4-Barrel intake for this engine is pricey, so I just need to scope out the parts and look for a decent price. That way I'll have everything when its rebuilt.
