I have a parts list (drawings) for my other motors. I wish I could get
one for the Honda. For taking things apart and putting them back
together, those parts blow ups are as handy as a shop manual imho.

I agree.

I know a guy who has a ton of experience in outboard repair - one of
those troubleshooter types - and he told me once that when he was at a
big dealer down along the shore, the Honda rep visited. He asked if
there was going to be a Honda school or in-service seminar and the
Honda rep said (as reported) "Honda's never break - there's no need
for schools".

In my anecdotal experience Honda's are great engines, but when they
break, the reported problems are usually really strange.

Interesting.

Later,
