But I do know that there production was severely hit by the tsunami. Honda does seem to stand behind there products. Damage I was in Construction until the bottom fell out of everything, so I had to fall back on an old career. They say Im too old and only want to pay about half of what I was making before. I am too old for that kind of stress at that price...............lol.

Especially one that sees the stresses of combustion/heating cooling cycles. Best bet is a new head. Had some success welding castings, but it's a 50-50 proposition, and nothing I'd risk getting stranded on the water for. Honda generally has high quality parts, but they have been doing the out-source crap lately too. "Honda" no longer means made exclusively in Japan. I still run a 2-cycle OMC 115. Grew up with frang-dangers and can't part with mixing my own oil. Blackbart and vipersniper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
