    Put the cooling jacket on the motor (do not install the end caps with the O rings yet. Now, place one O ring on over the motor and butt it up against the jacket......now take one of the end caps and slowy push and screw it on to the jacket, the O ring will work its way into the groove of the end cap.....repeat with other side. I just did the same thing last night and it worked.

            One thing to keep in mind..

            First versions of the jacket had a few tolerance issues. It could be installed but was tricky.

            The newer versions are much easer and dead reliable..

            It might be you have an early version?

              yes grim i got an earlier version from a friend for cheap money. motor is in excellent shape but the jacket's threads were stripped as it turns out.

                If you haven't already ordered it, I could give you a Proboat jacket, I have a spare.
