Just recently purchased a 95 115h.p. Johnson on a Lund Tyee. The guy I purchased it from showed it to two other people and used the Suction cup water supply for proving the engines performance. He also demonstated it to me. The engine stared right up and ran fine with a good stream of water from the pump. Excited about finding a used Teee I bought it on the spot. I brought the boat to my cabin where temps got down to about 20 degrees farenheight overnight. <br /><br />My question is...<br />1) If there was any water left in the cooling ports could this have harmed the engine?<br /><br />I made sure to tilt the engine to its most horizontal position so that the water would run out. But I am not sure if he did this. The engine was tilted up when I arrived to view it. <br /><br />2) Would having the engine tilted up have caused freezing water to damage this engine?<br /><br />3)If damage was caused what damage would you suspect and how should I go about testing for it so that I do not make it worse?<br /><br />Thnaks Again<br /><br />Mike
