Motor starts every time & doesn't smoke or leak. It pulls surprisingly well, ( the extra 30hpalong with the 4 speed makes a substantial difference compared to other 80hp 3 speed rampsides I've driven) 75mph on the freeway without a problemPushrod tube o-rings,valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket all replaced.
