Default Re: Repower I/O Qs.

Just dropped it off at the wrench. He's gonna see how bad it is. I can get it to run but, it's awful noisy. Clanking, grinding....not good. I drained the oil ( water in it) and added kerosene and oil, ran it for a minute and drained that out trying to flush whatever water was still in it. I think the main berings are toast. The wrench is suggesting I replace with the same motor if he can find one cuz the outdrive won't work with any other motor....otherwise a 5.7 whole package if I wanna repower completley.
