I need to make sure my oil lines are not reversed. I have a BBC with mercruiser remote oil kit. I have not set up my oil pressure guage so I cant use that. I have all the manuals but cant find the damm diagram that shows the orientation of the lines. Can anyone help please?

I have the manuals to, but don't have a clue which one to use. Do you have a Merc serial number for your engine?

Thanks for the reply Don. I found the drawing in one of the manuals. I had it set up right. Now I am on to why I am not pumping any water. I switched out the water pump last fall. The whole thing. well I guess I better make another thread.

If you started putting in some information like Model number, serial number, drive type, etc. you might get answers a lot faster on your questions.
BBC Mercruiser just doesn't give enough info to answer anything.

Have a look at this thread from the stickies.
