  • Stuck motor

    Hi,
    I have a 175 vmax, stuck from not being winterized,
    had it soaking in pb blaster horizontal for a month now..now im thinking the guy that sold it to me may have overheated it.. my question is can I pull the 3 carbs off with the assembly without taking each one off, also if so can i then take the crancase cover off without taking off the whole powerhead so i can attempt to free uo the frozen rings?

          You can't pull the crankcase cover without pulling the power head. If there is rust on the cylinder, chances are there is rust on some of the bearings. If you do get it to start, expect bearings to start to fly apart shortly.
