(Volvo 5.0 V6 1995 in a Wellcraft)<br />I was out all day on the boat. As I was heading in I noticed the temp gauge started to go up.. 230-260, at the same time I heard the rockers making a racket, quick look at the oil pres gauge,,, down to almost zero. The oil pressure did go up with rpm', but would go down to zero at idle. The engine started to smoke lightly, burned oil smell. I made it to the dock, shut it down and let it sit for a couple hours. Went back down, started it up and everything seemed stable, oil pressure at 40-50, temp at 175. The one thing I found was a huge clump of weeds wrapped around the lower unit. It's dark(night)so I have to wait until tomorrow to try it... or maybe I am so afraid of running it(aka chicken) because I don't want to see my boating season come to an end. Could the weeds have been the culprit. If the intakes were blocked and the engine heated up so badly would this make the oil so thin it would drop the presure to nothing? Any ideas would be appreciated. Was I lucky or is my boating season shot?<br />Thanks You
