I have read several posts for the camshaft issues being scored from the seals and causing leaks. I replaced the seals in my 488 mercruiser last year and it held for about 5 days or 20 hours of use and I did notice a bit of a grove in the camshaft but it didnt seem horrible so I just used emery cloth to smoothing things down a little and take the roughness off. Looks like the speedi-sleeve is going to be required.
I have not found in any of the posts the size of the speedi-sleeve that would work for this. I do not have one of those measuring caliper things does anyone know what size they used for this repair?
thanks in advance, this is my first post so I look forward to hearing back.
This was also my first attempt at boat repair and well it didnt go so well obviously ha!!!
