i got my parts today. a new valve(red pointer valve and a top cap and gasket. took all apart and found that the red valve had a long split on the side. installed valve and top cap since i ordered a new one. ran engine for 30 min on the lift then let set for a while.with it being 84 to day took a 10 mile test run. seemed to do fine , will pull engine cover and carb cover and reck thurs. i feel good that this will take care of the fuel/oil leak. thanks for everyones help!!!!!!! now on to the steering and trim tab cyl!!
 
well back to the drawing table .After test run still saw leak. it looks like a small amount is coming out were senolid fits in to unit,there is a small o-ring there. so i have ordered it. they are out of stock but hope to have late this week. i hopt to #ell this will take care if it!!!!!!!! will let yall know as soon as i am able to make another run. any other sugguestions?
 
still have oil /fuel leak

waiting on two o-rings for the enrichment valve. they sent my order to someone else and i got here order yesterday!! if its not one thing it another. was cleaning everything up today as i saw more oil leaking. i saw a drip coming from the bottom right side carb(right side looking at it from inside the boat) dont know anything about carbs. what can i exspect to pay to have someone repair it? as we are going to MYRTLE BEACH on the 12th of may,then put the boat in at north myrtle and ride up to ocean isle then on up to southport and eat at the provision co!! i am hoping to have this finnaly fixed so we can take the boat.
 
I haven't been any help. I know how boat projects go, SO, here wishing you the strength to see it through.. :beer: It will start going your way any time now.
