Here is a few pick of what failedon my Yamaha 150hp. I took pics of the good bearings too and Joey showed where another bearing was getting hot. Im having my oil injection disconnected, so I wont take any more chances of it not being lubricated right. Dont know if you can see the bearing with a blueish tent and the others look normal. My crank is on back order and he said he should have me fixed up by the end of the next week.Ifound out who my real friends are during this boatlesstime, which aren't many. It sucks that i missed the last 2 cff tournys, and Im ready for night fishing.

At least my block and pistons are good. He is replacing rings, bearings, push rod and the most exspensive part the crank.</p>

<font size="3">That is bad and i feel sad for you. I hope you never have a catastrophic experience again because I know that will put a dent in the old wallet. Wrenchin is plugging my oil injection line this weekend so I can avoid what you have experie</font><font size="3">nced. </font></p>

<font size="3">I hope for you that it all works out great with the rebuild. </font></p>

I did pick up my boat and I'm puting in at CFP and troll around using my structure scan and maybe find some new spots close by. Its better than nothing, I know there is good fish in the park. Its definetly made me little more humble since Ive been without a boat but its still emoBang. I only hope I back up and going next weekend.
