Hello Kramden, This is indeed a gem of a motor. It’s been a while since I saw you around. I’m also new to outboards. May you please explain why it’s bad to rev in neutral?
@@peteryeung111 Well, you are exceeding the safe RPM of the engine with no load on it, a connecting rod could give way destroying the engine. Try not to run the engine over 2-3000RPM in neutral.
That is a beautiful engine, one of my favorites, but please don't rev it in neutral like that....
