I'm considering buying a 15' bass boat with a 1986 Mercury classic fifty on it. The seller says its a 4 cylinder and he is replacing the water pump because it was overheating. I asked about the possibility of a blown head gasket and he said that there is no head gasket on that model. I don't know much about outboards but sounds strange to me. Is it possible that he is right or maybe just doesn't know what he is talking about? Thanks for your input.
