2002 mercruiser 3.0. Motor tries to start. Getting no gas no fire. Last time used overheated and not sure what to do next. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Fuel was good. Not sure why it overheated and since cant get get gas or fire. Dont know what to check next. Can you give me a list of what to check off. Not sure of the next step or steps i need to go to in order to fix it. Thanks for the help.
So first is find why it gets no gas - this is same as a car - pull the line off the carb and stick it in a bottle. Crank the engine, anything come out? No - fuel pump or plugged line. Yes, the screen on the carb or the needle valve is crudded up.
Checked the compression and it was bad in 3 cylinders. Guy told me motor was done. Now I’m trying to figure out how and where to find a new motor. Any suggestions.

They guy that checked it said the motor was junked. I haven’t had much luck finding someone to do it. Didn’t know if it would be better to just get a another motor. I really appreciate the help.
Probably need to find another guy. but if you will pull it or have someone that will. Your motor can be rebuilt for about the same or less then a reman. In any case you can get a reman from a place like Michigan Motorz
That doesnt explain why you arent getting gas or fire. Is it fuel injected? Computer controlled? Maybe a fuel pump cutoff switch. What was the compression? a simple head job could fix the compression issue so a leak down test is needed. Since it overheated it could be stuck rings...some marvel mystery oil helps alot unsticking these. You can put a brand new motor in it but if your not getting fuel or fire that engine wont run either.
