<div>Hi Cliff,,</div>
<div>Others may disagree with this, but ive got a
suggestion. If your oil compensating the motors
and are going to add the wrap around tube\bladder
as per Alecs Snoopy, I would suggest, adding a
vent hole somewhere near the aft bearing. With my
setup, ive put the tube going around the motor and
its all ok. But, I just cannot get the last dregs
of air out. No matter what I do. I suspect that
its because the pipe nipple protrudes a mm or so
into the casing and so will not allow the last bit
of air out. It really irritates me and I worry
that the motor is not properly compensated. So, I
am going to make a modification to the motor like
this pic. I think this will work, the suspect bit
is mating the plug against the slightly domed
motor case. I think a large rubber washer
should seal it. The i should be able to rotate
the motor and remove the last dregs of air. What
do you think?<br clear="none">

<div> Does anyone have any
documentation on the
Minn Kota 101 main
support female thread
spec? It does not look
like a tapered pipe
thread and the threads
per inch look to great.
I put a digital caliper
on this at it read
1.064-1.07 inches for
the minor diameter. I
measured the threads and
it is 18 threads per
inch. I looked in the
machine handbook and the
closest that comes is a
1-1/8 UNEF (Extra fine
thread series).
The major and minor
diameters for a 1-1/8"
UNEF are 1.1250" and
1.0649" respectively.</div>
