I had water coming out of the
I had water coming out of the starboard sparkplugs of my 350 saltwater cooled mercruiser. I changed the intake and head gaskets.I also replaced the exhaust manifold and riser. The boat ran fine for two days. Now I have water coming out of the starboard side again.I used the old bolts for the head and they were not full length due to rust. I also did not put sealant on them. The intake manifold was tightened to specs but when I looked at it now the bolts were not as tight as when I put the gasket on.Do you think it might be the bolts were loose?
