Howdy,
1988 Bayliner Capri 1950 bow-rider 3.0liter cobra outdrive
Title says it for some stupid reason i put the plug back in the boat after a day at the lake thinking it wouldn't rain here in Calif. After a big rain my cover leaked and i had 2-4 inches of water above the floor. About 1/2 way up the engine.
After i drained it i changed the oil and pumped out 4 1/2 GALLONS of oily water. Left the plug, oil filter and cap of for a day to try and dry out then filled with oil and added a little marvel mystery oil. Let sit for a couple months in hot weather and found the starter was bad (still filled with water) well now it runs again took to lake for 30-60 minutes and will change oil again. will do this a few times. Water covered the starter, 1/2 alternator(but its still OK for now) i don't think it got up to the alternator and defiantly not to the solenoids.
Any one have any other suggestions. Have other questions for other posts later.
Thanks for all help.
