Known Issues:
1. Automatic Oil Injection system tripped the alarm. Oil Injection
system could be repaired or you could just not use the automatic
injection system, bypass the system and premix your fuel/oil 50:1.
Currently running the engine on a premix of oil/fuel.
2. Speedometer does not work. I have not attempted to fix it either.
3. Gas Gauge is not accurate. It shows full when it is full but
shows that the tank has less gas in it than it actually does. Most
likely will need a new Electric Sending Unit ($40 at ********)
4. #5 cylinder is not sparking. Mercury engine mechanic diagnosed it
to be a switch panel on the engine. Estimated cost to repair is $250
for parts and one hour of labor. Engine runs without this being
repaired, but doesn't have full power due to one of the cylinders not
firing.
