1993 Ford 5.0 OMC -- Can't find Starboard Engine Drain

[garycinn]

Long time no post.

This is on a friend's Chris Craft. We have located the two manifold drains; and the port block drain; just can't find the starboard engine block drain.

He's got a SELOC manual, but no go.

Any clues, hints, or other would be appreciated.

thanks,

Gary

It's just in front of the starter and up a little. Looks like it's kinda hard to see because of the exhaust manifold.

The starboard block drain is located more toward the front, the port side as you found out is farther aft.

This could be. My factory service manual is for a 89. Either way it should be just under the exhaust manifold.

Agreed. I just drained mine this weekend
