Re: HOLE IN HEAD

I doubt if corrosion would pick that one spot in your outboard's head to eat through. Better check around some more as I suspect a peice of ring/piston/? punched a hole in the head. <br />Quick check..cover the hole with your finger and turn it over a few times,do you have compression?
