    When you pull your cowling off, Be careful on the reinstall.

    I pulled my motor off the jackplate to install 2" setback spacers this last week. When I took it to the Lake, I had a check engine light and a rough running engine.
    When I took the cowling off to see what I'd done. I'd pulled a coil wire off when replacing the cowling. Glad it wasn't any of the 1000 other wires I'd zip tied and straightened up under the console. What a mess the dealer that installed my motor last year had made.
