I recently purchased a 2001 boat with a 3.0 liter mercruiser engine and outdrive. I was told by the previous owner that the boat filled with rain water while on the trailer and the plug was still in the boat. The water line is half way up the engine. I was told the engine could be turned by hand with a wrench.
How can I turn the motor by hand? Is it at one of the pullies in the front of the engine? I need to get alot of leverage in case the motor is seized. I have read the posts on how to restore a submerged engine. I want to turn the motor every day or so until I get time to really work on it.
Thanks for the help
