Hello i am new just found this board i have a motor that ran good for a whole year then because of my inexperience i was starting it during the winter and the last time i started it i didnt lower the motor t all the way it still had that traveling bar on ther so i dont know if it drained all the way then when i started it again it would run untill i let the water start running through that earmuff looking thing.Then it would shut the engine off i pulled plugs and two of the cyl have like a foam gas and water i guess,i pulled the head the gasket only had one spot where it looked rusty but it didnt have a path to the cyl.I am gong to replace the headgasket but we dont think thats the problem i would thank you for any help. 74 evinrude 3cyl

Ken,<br /><br />Head gaskets can be sneaky.<br /><br />Replace it and see how it turns out.<br /><br />Remember to retourque it after at least one cold/warm cycle.
