"Hope someone can help. Recently put boat in the water , started ok, but ran rough for about 10 minutes, opened engine lid only to see white fluffernutter coming out of the tube that goes to the distributor. Checked oil resovoir and it is all white foam!!! Took off intake and may have seen a failure on the gasket itself. Man what a job to try to break down that stuff engine was FULL, used some gas and a vacume/ extractor to put gasoline in and out and finally got it to break down and start coming out the oil change tube. Now to i figure it is the intake, or could it be a headgasket or cracked block??? Some help here would be nice, also what are the torque specs on the intake bolts when i go to put them back in??? thanks for you help.}}"

"Clean it with diesel fuel, less chance of exploding the shop vac(fumes and sparks)
Was it winterized properly?
Has it run before or was this the first time?"
