I am halfway through my big winter project. I have the motor sitting in the middle of the salon. The shaft has been cut and both sides are off the boat and will go to the machine shop tomorrow. And the dampener plate, oh just wait until I post photos of that one!
Now that I am starting to put stuff back together and I have a quick question: should I use Lanocote or an equivalent product on the motor mounts?
There are two sets of bolts. The bolts that attach the mounts to the boat. These I would think I would want to use Lanocote or maybe TefGel on so they don't seize.
The other set of bolts are the large bolts the motor sits on. I would think you would not want to use anything here due to the vibration. I might even want to use some blue loctite or something.
A little feedback from those who have been there and done that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jesse
