Re: 3.0 OMC runs for 30 seconds, once a day
How can I run the engine on the hose for 90 minutes if my outdrive has failed and is off the boat? How do I hook up the hose?
Did you have the drive down when it quit running the last time?
Might want to post some pictures of your ball gears.
I'd pressure test the cooling system. Then run the engine on the hose for about 90 minutes. If I found the block cracked, I'd push the rig to the curb with a free boat sign on it.
If the engine checks out, I'd look for a parts boat alright, but it would be a Mercruiser 3.0 powered boat with a broken engine. Then I'd pull the good 3.0 out of that rig and give the rest away.
