2014 MerCruiser 4.3 mpi
initial startup and systems check appeared to be fine.
checked the oil and all looked well. First startup in a few months after the winter months. Motor began to run rough and water/oil shot out the dipstick tube. Immediately killed the engine.
I vacuumed as much oil/water out as I could. I drained all the water out. I have oil/water on spark plugs on both sides of the engine. I put a few quarts of oil back into the engine to try and override water sitting internally on the engine components until I can figure out what is wrong. A few searches showed me some issues on older setups that pointed to risers and intake gaskets. Any advice would be great.
Thanks
