Does any one have an original manual for a 1971 55 hp chrysler. Am trying to find out what the drilled hole in the recessed area beneath the water intake tube is there for. If gearcases are not ventilated , what function does this hole serve?
recently acquired a 55 hp chrysler,model # 554bc. put it in a barrel and cranked it over, it fired right up and sounded great, but no water circulation. pulled the leg to inspect waterpump, every thing looked brand new. the water intake tube was quite loose so I put a dab of silicone to seal it...
