So I was approached by a coworker who is having some bad luck. They didn't get the boat winterized in a timely fashion last fall, and in Canada thats an issue, and now need some parts. I can see it needs manifolds and I will likely just have them buy a kit with risers and gaskets. It also blew out the frost plugs from the block, so what should I be looking for internally on this engine.
[FONT=verdana, geneva]For the people who may reply, its a 4.3 Mercruiser in an 18 foot Ba[/FONT]yliner runabout and thats basically all I know.
I have this posted on a boating forum as well. Some say just scrap the engine for a long block. I have also considered filling the cooling system full of acetone and seeing what happens.
