"I bought a 1974 Starcraft las
"I bought a 1974 Starcraft last year on Ebay (mid season). It has a 165 Mec I/O. I purchased it with water in the oil,, looking to find the problem. Note: there was a LOT of water in this oil, over a gallon. The engine was stopped once the problem was discovered and it has been purged several times. The engine starts and runs like a top!!!!
What are my most likely sources, and are there effective ways of locating this problem without tearing down the engine. On a positive note I pulled the water pump and the inside water jackets look clean, no sign of rust and corosion for an older engine
Every feedback is WELCOME,,, Winton"
