Anyone looking for a good laugh?
Re-fitted my out-drives today. Newly painted, new bellows, anodes etc. First one went on, great!
As I was re-fitting the 2nd one a friend came into the yard and while it was great to have a hand, I got distracted. Put it all back together, we stood back to admire the work, then realised I forgot to fit the hook-up-fork bushes: Keypart
I always replace these when the outdrive is off and in my distracted state, forgot to fit the new ones. We had *everything* back together when I realised, even the clip for the steering cable / split pins etc...
We walked away, had a drink and came back an hour later All done now, though. Lesson learned.
