    Should I go give them the old fuel pump to put back in......it was showing 48-50 psi the times I checked it,

    alldodge.....I ended up getting towed to a marina. I got a call saying the distributor was cracked. The replaced that and checked my plug gaps and it started. How was I getting a spark on the wires? Also they said it keeps pumping too much fuel in and flooding the engine. Could this be...

    I guess that I could drain the water from the clock and exhaust manifolds and let it sit a bit. Then with the boat on a lift just crank it to see if it starts, not let it run...just to see if I get combustion.

    it did not gasp.....hard stop. But there are 8 cylinders.....if there is water in one......I would think that one of the others would have at least ignited
