Some 18 months ago I was able to buy a 980 tall tub machine. It was a running machine when I bought it but I knew some things weren't just right with it. Finally, I'm getting around to working on it. I'm going to pull it completely apart and rebuild it so I know what I have.
Pulled the top off a few weeks ago and today pulled the engine. So far, the rubber engine mounts weren't compressing and holding things tight, allowing the engine to rock back and forth. The T20 is only half way mounted and its actually loose in the cradle. The plungers seem a little far out of the case. I'll probably open it up just to take a look.
I'm going to take the 18 horse from this machine and drop it in my 950. The 950 has a 20 horse but I don't believe it is running as strong as it should. I just want to see if there is any noticeable difference.
As for the 980, I have a 22 horse Yanmar diesel to go in it.
