well i finally got to have a serious look at the motor.
thankfully she started fine and ran well. had a big night before. and mate was holding the motor in place, i said be careful as i would put it into gear. i pushed the throttle up and nothing happened. oh no throttle cables. lol.... bought some cables @ $50 each and realised that the screw and a piece of staino that holds the cables in place at the motor end were missing as well....brilliant
order them and ordered the missing rubber grommet as shown on the pic. least it started well!
