"just went to the lake after picking the boat up from the shop. They said it had a bad block plug and replaced it. Got to the lake boat still on the trailer. 1978 26' Sea Ray with a 1992 7.4 Bravo II motor and out drive. Started the motor and the bildge started to take water on again, just like before it went to the shop. I think maybe the inlet hose from the out drive may be bad. Is this possible? I communicated this to the shop before and they did not check it. Needless to say it is back at the shop. I checked the oil and it was somewhat brown like a choclate milk. I am sure there must be water in the oil. It is not a real milky white. I ran the engine for around 15 minutes and it did not get worse, nor did the level on the dip stick increase as if more water was coming in. Last week it hydro locked due to bad riser gaskets. I replaced them with new gaskets and they do not appear to be leaking. please help. -Tim"
