after launching my boat this past week while to the morning we over heated and blew a head gasket i think while heading to the mooring .after getting to the mooring and draining the engine oil i got the dreaded milkshake oil coming up . spark plugs look ok when pulling them .
my plan of attack for the weekend was this:
1.refill with clean oil and perform a compression test.
2. if compression is good begin to remove parts all the way down to the head and inspect for cracks.
3. no block cracks i will replace all gaskets and heads with new
4. do a few fill and drains to get back to clean oil.
this is my first time dealing with a situation like this so any advice or help would be appreciated . i have the crusader repair manual and was curious if there is another manual that goes more indepth about the assembly of the actual engines .
thank you !
