Hey guys, I just took my outboard boat motor to the shop. The mechanic told me it was a blown head gasket. The engine is a 35hp Force outboard with a 10x13 prop. My question is, what exactly would cause a blown head gasket? Engine seemed to run smooth before it blew. No smoke before it blew nor rough feel. Originally thought that I was running too rich of a oil/gas mix. Maybe it was too lean and I did the math wrong? Any ideas?
Would have asked mechanic, but was afraid he would charge me more after the rough send off the last time I spoke with him.
