Thanks for the feedback. I came out and took another couple of photos and it does look like a pretty severely cracked block. (Photos attached)
Is it worth replacing the motor? What would be a reasonable cost for someone to replace the block including labor? Thanks again for your help!
Apologies, i uploaded it to YouTube here’s a link - we had a heater installed next to the motor, unfortunately the power turned off in Texas and it was disabled and it got down to 10 degrees or so. Here is a link to video -
I have a 1999 Chapparal Sunsesta with a Volvo Penta 5.0 Gi and we came back and started it for the first time and it seems to be leaking pretty badly. Is the engine block cracked or is it a water pump problem?
