motor update

well, apparently i have the most special motor in the entire world, not one parts store i went to has the spark plug i need. apparently, most parts books list all the possible brands and sizes a motor can use and for my motor the book lists only one brand and only one size amongst a list of motors that can use 3-4 different brands and sizes and of course they don't carry the brand or size i need. *sigh*

apparently water got in the motor and in the carburetor. they cleaned it all out and ground the spark plugs a bit and the motor works but now my four stroke sounds like a 2 stroke. so hopefully brad can pick up the spark plugs and bring them. i had meant to stop at the marine store to get some but then i couldnt find it and it was getting later in the day and i was more concerned with getting insurance, crossing the border, and getting our tourist cards before everything closed.

anyway, special shout out to sam, yes i got your messages, that place sounds great, you're totally cracking me up. i have paid up until tomorrow for this place we're in now so if you can find out something quick that would be awesome.
