I am ready to mount the engine on my series 6 and finally took the motor out of the crate. I purchased this kit from a gentle man in California (nice calm warm weather) anyways this is a 2001 kit and motor its been crated up brand new since then. I started reading the install manual and it mentioned to turn the prop shaft 2 complete times every 3 months. I tried to turn the shaft and I did get it to turn but am concerned about everything else, seals, diaphram in the carbs. etc... I spoke to a rotax mech. today and he said as long as the factory plugs were in it he wouldn't be to worried about it. And that I should go over the service bulletins and If i wanted he would come up and assisted on first engine start. What is everyones thoughts!!!

A $19,000 paper weight is pretty expensive

Thanks Patrick
