sorry, should have thought about the title a bit better, no the dealer didnt give him back the old water pump.......
huey, with all due respect, compare apples with apples, youre saying a 4cyl 4 stroke has less torque than a v6 2 stroke........ without being a outboard expert and knowing what size engine has how many cylinders, would a v6 4 stroke have ore or less torque than that of a v6 2 stroke.......and at what RPM do you get full torque?
we have called the dealer, he seemed very dismissive of the whole thing, he found an evinrude dealer on the central coast who he is happy with, saves himself 4 hours in a round trip now......
surely its a design flaw somewhere along the way, where not having run over anything, run aground etc, that crap is still able to get sucked into the cooling system?
huey, it sounds like you are very pro etec, which is fine, and it also seems as though you have the support of the long time posters on here, so im not gonna argue with you and say what i think, but your condensending attitude leaves alot to be desired....... although, i have read nothing but glowing reports about you, so maybe i have caught you on an off day......
