Hello every one!
I have this old fellow "BJ25BALCOS" and a month ago I was driving back to the harbor when I felt the engine was dying then I stopped it. Where was a lot of white smoke coming from the engine cover then I removed it to allow some chilling as it was so hot. The feul tank was almost empty so I added some feul that I got with me and tried to launch it again but I couldn't. The coast guards pulled me out to the harbor. Next day I tried to start the engine but it was so difficult and it ran but after so many robe pulls and with the acceleration on N but full power. No water was coming out. So I stopped it. Cheching the impeller, it needed to be replaced. But i intend to replace the thermostat as well. Today I removed the cylinder head gasket to check so i found it not damaged but one of the pistons was as if exploded. (Picture attached). I dunno if that's normal or not. Please advise and thank you pretty much.
