Yeah and when they show up with a new outfit (that we actually notice) and say something about , they give us "Oh I've had this for years"

Then again , there is the "wife factor" . Usually much easier to justify "repair" of what you already have , than it is to buy a new one . Most wives will know what another one will cost , but have no idea what parts are worth as long as you have a private slush fund

Well my buddy who owns the boat had his drive laying on it's side while off the boat for about two weeks.I think some oil leaked out the check valve where the auto fill is connected. He topped off the bottle inside but never actually checked the drive level. My bet is the top end is toast. Just before it went we could hear a whine when we slowed to 30 or so. Began to accelerate again and boom
