"I just started my Ford 302 me
"I just started my Ford 302 mercruiser for the first time this season. It started fine and ran good but then began pouring water out of the mainfold, it is raw water cooled.The manifold has round plug type fitings.One of these plugs was blown out and the water went right through into the bilge.Are these freeze plugs or somthing like that to prevent the block from craking if it freezes, and is it possible to replace them without installing a new manifold?"
