Re: merc 470 170hp
Just got done pulling the head and replacing the head gasket on my 470 because of coolant in the oil. Slight crack in the gasket between the water jacket and #1 cylinder.
Engine running well? Any coolant smell in the exhaust? How much coolant are you losing each time out? If compression checks out...I would lean towards Bondo's thoughts.....
Good Luck.
