Default More Mercury

Had some help here on the weekend and we got the brakes bled on the 52 Merc. They are as good as new with high pedal and instant response. I'm having to get used to not pumping the pedal three times to get slowed down
Got a whole lot of new video shot of the test drive but have not had time to edit for a full youtube upload yet. For those on facebook there is a short clip on my page.

Got the wife to help with brake bleeding...push down, let up, push down, let up, etc.
Started to smell gas. Yep.
