  I know you’re going to change the channel to more diving and recovery stuff one day but man do I love the marine repair / explanation stuff. The way you do it is so entertaining and informative. Just love that content. There’s my two cents.

  We get “PB Blaster” you get “Shift Ya Bastard” <br><br>Military imagery versus emotional truth.

  I&apos;m going to be sharing this video with my customers! I have a lot of customers that just do not understand why I won&apos;t work on a lot of older motors. This explains in detail about fixing one thing finding another and then it&apos;s just not worth it and then you got an upset customer. I much prefer happy customers over making money any day. Thanks from all the way here from Salt Lake City, UT Danger

  I had a similar problem with my Merc 3.3, not by lack of oil in fuel or a dunking but possibly from inverting the engine while stowing it away, causing a bit of salt water getting in to the crankcase and then on the crankshaft roller bearings. Managed to unseize with lots of spray down the plug hole and in the carby. It ran but very noisy so I ended up stripping it apart and ordered the full parts kit to repair it off ebay. Works like a dream now. It&apos;s never too hard to have go at fixing something yourself particularly with the help of Stu&apos;s informative videos.

  I wish I could give this video a &apos;super like&apos;, Stu. I wish more boat mechanics (and other technicians) were conducting their business and advice like you do. Just solid plans and honesty that will lead to a happy customer in the long run. Thank you.

  Back when I was a teenager (13y.o.) I got a 40HP Mariner two stroke for free. &nbsp;It had sunk in salt water the day before, and I put the motor in fresh water for 2 days before I started to &quot;revive&quot; it. Needed new coils and plugs + some o-rings. Total cost for repair was around $120. &nbsp;Needless to say I had lots of fun with that motor, upgrading from a 10hp Chrysler outboard. Great video. &nbsp;Looking forward to seeing the bearing repair.

  I seized my 18,000 horse power 498cc out board... I did not realise &nbsp;massive engines like mine could not digest pasta... Apparently brocoli and cheese is OK for it... But not pasta 😢😢😢

  Such a pleasure to watch someone that actually understands engines and what they need to keep running. Good work!
