Well my mother always said I do some stuff backwards. I have been busting my you know what all winter with the jewlery on my vessel. Well now it's time for the meat and potatoes lol. Got the engines going now in maintenance mode.
I found a few area's of concern that I will look after for sure.
This is the area where the control cables come into the engine. I'll clean it up and put some inhibitor in the area for sure.
The only rusty bolt on this 2005 Honda BF225. I knew about it's condition last year and I will finally replace it this year as it has gotten quite worse. It is due to being so close to the corner of the cowling seal that must be leaking in that area. The other side is fine. (I replaced it with the upper bolt from the top cylinder). What have you folks done in the past to help seal your cowling's?
Doing alot more myself this year as I want to become a little more intimate with these engines.
I'm not a super mechanical guy (I just know how to stick metal together) but can figure out alot of stuff. Time to start knowing alot more about my engines myself instead of taking them to a mechanic or dealer.
