A little background...I did not perform and on Mercruiser 3.0L (circa 1994, alpha drive). Nor did I fog the engine before winter storage in PA. We pulled the boat out of storage and performed an oil change and replaced the oil filter. The engine ran great. Once we got the boat out into the water it started up on the first try and we ran for about 20 minutes up river. All of a sudden the engine seized up. Not a hard seize but it did nonetheless. It did start right back up and then wuit again. We waited 30 minutes and restarted the engine. It tirned over slow but started and ran all the way back to the boat launch where it quit again right near the launch. <br /><br />Last summer we had some problems with water in our gas line. This last problem seemed nothing like that. It didnt really struggle and stall out. It quit. Could it be the oil pump? Dirty oil? Anybody have any ideas. We were thinking we would have to lubricate the pistons and manually turn the engine over but if the engine ran for 20 minutes at a time and then "seized" would this be the problem? Any ideas? Please help!
