so i putchased a thundercraft malibu with an 1984 omc 3.8 litre. It had a blown intake gasket ive repaired that and i need to drain the milky oil in it. I jush realized this damn motor has no oil drain plug, how do i change this oil? Its super thick.
 
how long has the oil been 'milky'?

a light bulb in a safety housing, under the oil pan, will help the oil flow better...

Ive tried that the oil is way to thick will kerosene thin it out enough to start sucking it out?

Probably only if you disable the ignition and run it on the starter with kero in the pan and Makos idea of light bulb to heat it is good.

I bought a boat that had a known cracked block by PO and the milky oil that came out the valve covers was like sticky paste. was a MF to get out of the bilge lots of hot water and bon ami ... You don't want to hear this but you may have to pull the engine and drop the pan and valve covers to clean it out. Sounds worse than it is as most engines pull in about an hour if you have a lift.
