Taking stern drive off Sea Ray to find problem Repairs

[@TugboatMatt]

With the right tools at your disposal it’s a very easy job. 😉 Can’t wait for part 2

[@OutdoorRob]

If you say so...LOL! Don't think there's a part two, think I was away for that. LOL! Thanks Matt!

[@1957Free]

By the way thanks for sharing your time

[@OutdoorRob]

Thanks Man!

[@transientboater]

Thanks Rob. I enjoy boat videos like this and they remind me why I went back to outboards. Engine out work is expensive if you don't have the space or rigging to do the job in house, so to speak. Never-the-less if you want a larger craft, they come with in boards for the most part. Don't take this as a sour statement on my part. I just have had a few boats in my time and I am in a different use case scenario. The boat looks good and if it fits the requirements you seek, carry on. I did like the point when you had to hoist your self up to put the trans in forward. I too make these sounds. Take care and enjoy the adventures.

Robs lucky he has a friend with access to equipment, went smooth and cheap

[@OutdoorRob]

Thanks Transient Boater...ya, the sounds I make are getting louder and louder as time goes by. LOL!

[@OutdoorRob]

[@OutdoorRob]

Thanks Man! Fortunately I know a great marine mechanic!

[@terryboyer1342]

[@2pugman]

PB Blaster or WD 40 ?

[@OutdoorRob]

I put white lithium grease on it for future removals.

[@olivei2484]

Maybe drop a Russel Bros motor in there.

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL! Matt offered a diesel engine...about a 1946 engine. LOL!

[@olivei2484]

@@OutdoorRob Maybe he needs more high-end on those Sport tugs of his.

[@OutdoorRob]

LOL!

[@benny8300]

Hi Rob ! You need a bigger shop

[@OutdoorRob]

Yes, yes I do.

[@sitchad]

As long as you have the engine out replace the flapper valves and given it is a 1992 I would replace the front motor mounts.

[@OutdoorRob]

My Mechanic went over everything so hopefully we don't have anymore issues this year... Thanks Chad!

[@vancemarin8022]

You are not having much good luck this so far this summer !!

[@OutdoorRob]

I haven't had any luck with anything this year, been a struggle for sure!
