Re: Basin claimed another gator tail My frame, clutch, reverse (replaced pads once) are all original 2009. Changed from 23hp to 35hp last year and just replace shaft seal at prop. Runs like new. With all the normal abuse these engines take its a miracle they last as long as they do. But they are so simple to repair. As long as you don't crack the frame you've got an engine for life.

Re: Basin claimed another gator tail Easy but expensive to repair I don't like working on
My own stuff when it. Comes to the motor. I let Calen do all
My repair work in my experience he's hands down best guy to work on these motors

Re: Basin claimed another gator tail Calen and his crew worked thier magic again. Saved me from having to buy a new crank they got the bolt out. And got it going again. That's why I bring my stuff to Calen they give 110% on
Everything they put thier hands on
