Maria's heading out of town this week to spend the holidays with family. I'll be running the shop on my own for a few weeks so time might be of a premium. Probably yank it, go thru rings and bearing, inspect the top end and drop it back in. Acutally, I'll throw new oil in it and run in on the ramp this weekend. Either way, it will be ready in January to a lake test about the time you and Chad have your boats ready.
BTW, you're fridge is running great! Still have to test the auto defrost, then we can get it in your house.
