"Hello People of Wisdom
I pulled my little hole in the water that I throw money at out of the water on the weekend for its winter service time and seem to have a little problem brewing.
Started my port engine no problem, ran like a clock, started my starboard engine and it ran like a dog and took a long time to clear itself.
Pulled the plugs today before starting it again and 5 & 6 showed signs of moisture (water vapour) on them.
When I started it I am getting steam out the exaust. I believe the Block and head are quite good (head was off last season, less than 50hrs ago ) I suspect the riser may have seen its day but also the manifold could be getting towards the end of its life as well.
What do you guys think before I break out the scalple and cut her open.
They are 292 straight 6 Chevs in the old girl with lots of hours on them.
Cheers
