    2000 200 EFI idles then dies

    I have a 2000 200 EFI. Last time I was out it was running rough midrange, running fine at high end and idling fine but only for about 5 minutes. After idling for 5 minutes or so it would surge a bit then die. Shifting into neutral and restarting it would idle fine for another 5 minutes or so...

    2000 15 hp 4 stroke cracked block

    I have a 2000 15 hp 4 stroke that is getting water in the oil. Marine tech says testing indicates a possible cracked block. Is there a way to use something like radiator leak stop to seal the crack? Thanks Bruce
