1985 OMC w/ 5.7 L GM Block
First an update...I posted a hydrolock problem about 2 months ago. Finally took it to a mechanic, who told me that my risers/manifolds were shot. Would cost $1000 to fix, unless the hydrolocking had damaged the engine. So I drydocked the project for financial reasons.
Cut to present...I found an identical boat with identical motor (rebuilt). I got a GREAT deal, so I bought it. But I'm now having a problem with the new motor. When I turn the key, the motor turns over great, there is power at the distributor, the rotor spins. But it just won't fire and run. I was thinking fuel pump, but there is gas in the fuel/water separator. Any ideas?
Thanks
