Didn't say how low, but it's still not up with the other 3. They were
thinking on fixing it, but decided to get another boat and so they're
wanting to sell this one. Cheap! *i mean, the lower end on the engine
is probably what they want for the whole thing... Cheap!

I know that that to repair the engine is going to cost something. It
could be anything from a bad ring to a scored piston and cylinder. ,
But I'm not too worried about it because I have a 115 v-4 in my garage
with a one year old power head. But I'd rather see how bad the engine
actually is before I swapped it out. If a cylinder is scored that's
one thing, but if it needs a piston and/or rings that's another.

I don't know much about the v-4's but can you pull a piston without
having pull the flywheel and split the casings etc?

The engine is a 1979 Evinrude Javilin squared hood.

just curious.

If you look on this site, assuming the URL works:

You're see an exploded view of that powerhead.

I don't see how you can remove a piston without splitting the casings.
How would you get to the wrist pin?

Here's the piston drawing:

Why in hell would you need to get to the wrist pin until you got the
piston/rod assembly out, dumb ass? Standard procedu unbolt the rod
from the crankshaft, push the pistion/rod assembly out. That simple.

Harrys answer only adds up one way. It's another "you don't even know,
what you don't know". He never took a piston out, Google failed him
again

He really is a dumb ass Looks like he has been caught lying yet
again

Was that the real Harry, or was it one of the numerous assistant Harrys?
It's getting so that you can't tell one from another.

Don't be stupid. Everybody knows when it's me playing Harry.
Only works to screw up the newsgroup for everybody else.
But it makes me feel strong, and that's what's important.
Hey, who said Harry has a corner on the narcissism market?
Bull.

If you think it is hard to tell the Harry's apart, how about that ass
hole who is spoofing my ID. His spelling and syntax errors remind me of
half my posts. I have to go back to my send folder to see if it is me
or that ass hole.
