I dont think there is an actual separate riser. Looks like what would be the riser and elbow are one piece. I might tackle it on the port side of the engine as acess is very easy
Ok didnt know that. I called the previous owner and he did not so thats likely the problem. Boats always been in fresh water.
It looks like it might be a big job to remove the elbows I think I will seek some professional help. Thank you for your help.
I'm glad I found this site.
I have a 1979 Catalina 350 with Marine power 350's. On start up of the starboard motor there is a gush of green coolant then white in the exhaust water and continues to lose collant when running. Motor starts and runs well.
Water pump impeller is fine,all cylinders pressure test well, heat...
