    alpha 1 gen 1 reverse lock

    Haven't worked on a Alpha in many years, just Bravo for me. You need manual 6 before starting. Without the manual things can go wrong. The list of tools for the lower is called for, but some may be able to use others. Someone like @Bondo or @Bt Doctur can advise better

    wiring slave solenoid

    You said using a 1/2 breaker bar, that is enough to snap the bolt if its stuck. A 3/8 short ratchet would be ok. Best to use the belt to turn it with plugs out Do agree, if your going to rebuild, take it all apart and have the machine shop tank it. Depends on how much your going to do, but...

    alpha 1 gen 1 reverse lock

    Yes, I was talking about the shift cable. Didn't think that would do it but your issue has to be the drive or cable Your not going to damage the shaft seal by putting the 2 halves together even if its off one tooth. As BT mentioned, the drive should slide completely together and not need...

    alpha 1 gen 1 reverse lock

    Normally it would only happen in one direction. Since it was working fine before impeller replacement, this is what I would check first along with if the cable is attached correctly and not broke

    Outdrive leak question

    The list does show 7-10 first and is a good test. Over time there has been many discussions on this topic after Don had passed. These discussion is also where the slight vacuum came in. While it should not have leaked, it did. Try with 5 psi and see if it leaks

    Kill switch

    With the lanyard in the switch you want to use the 2 contacts which are connected. With the lanyard pulled those 2 contacts should be open. Connect to the purple wire after the key Don't know which switch, but its probably setup for twin motors and can just use 2 of the contacts for one

    Swarm

    Walking back from the shop yesterday I heard a humming. The closer to house I get the louder it gets. Walk a couple steps into the woods and level increases. Never saw what it was but turned around and walked back out. I'm thinking hornets because of the lower drone pitch. About 30 minutes...

    Outdrive leak question

    Have not seen the issue with cold, but your testing pressure is to high. Better to use 5 psi, and no more then 10 (5 to 7 best) The lip seals face inward, so the higher the pressure the tighter the lip is pressed against the surface. Also goo to test with a vacuum gauge if pressure holds...
