ORIGINAL: gas pump bill

i started takeing the engine apart last knight .the front berring under the starter cone was frosen . its turning now feels like a rock crusher. the piston and con rod is missing and the conection drive shaft from the back of the engine to the drive gear in the foot is missing the prop is missing the cowling is missing but its a nice boat. but i dont understand this thing ways a ton even with the engine removed . oh well its on the way. bill payne
