complete engine

[loosechange]

looking for a complete 4.3 omc with the machanical fuel pump. have rebuilt the motor 3 times and failed to get it right. started with water in the engine from the exhaust leaking and has gotten worse every time i have fixed it this time water in the oil and locked up motor. have put long blocks in the last 2 times . I think i have some bad older parts . put new exhaust manifolds on then found the locked up motor sorry its long needed to vent any one know of a company to check with? thamks

Re: complete engine

i do not think a motor will resolve your porblem


You need to get the root cause of the motor failure and correct the cause

Re: complete engine

thanks I think I found it the original bat wing manifolds were cracked.... did the damage to the motor prior to the new exhaust manifolds....I think...could be wrong again though.

That's the number one cause for water injestion.
