transporting engine on it's back. A problem?

[htuong95]

Hi all,<br /><br /> I have a Chrysler 4hp sea king motor and planning to transport it on the bed of my truck. The motor will be on it's back. Is this bad for the motor? Will it leak oil, will the gas flood the engine, etc... Thanks.

No problem. It may leak a little gas out of the carb.

Rn the gas out before you pull the motor off the boat and there won't be any gas to leak out.
