Hey there, all of a sudden i decided to finalize the renovation of this outboard engine which i did pull apart two summers ago and of course it ended up 90% finished, i documented some of the disassembly (i never took apart any engine before)
I took it apart because of the lower bearing by the power output had completely fallen apart as seen in picture 3
I did order ALL new gaskets for every surface as well as a new timing coil(?) as the old one was difficult to mend
I was very thorough except i neglected to do anything to the cylinder walls or the cylinders, it seemed too scary to deal with but they had some scoring,(stupidly i didnt photograph it, i included a picture in which a part of a cylinder and ring is visible i you reckon i should de-assemble and hone the bores/change the consumables before finalizing the assembly?
There is compression, i am able to spin the flywheel by hand and there is some resistance but as i said, i dont know what im doing really, i dont have any special tools, shoot me some tips
