    Well, I can't bore the block. Are the piston pins pressed in or spiral locks? I am shut down until spring. Greased the cylinder bores. Will drag this to a machine shop in Spring to measure wear, taper, whatever. I guess I'll swap the 48 on and use the boat while I sort out this 60. Sure would...

    I was given a 16 ft Alumacraft with a 1987 60 hp Johnson - J60TLCUC. The boat was part of an estate and is registered through 2024, but no one has any history on it. I pulled the plugs and saturated the cylinders with penetrating oil. I plan to add fresh fuel tomorrow and see if it runs. I will...
