Hi all, first post.
I've got a 91 Sea Ray 200 with a 4.3 Mercruiser. I just slapped the water muffs on it to fire it up and noticed water dripping from the manifolds. I felt with my finger and there is indeed cracks at the bottom of both manifolds, on the bottom but above the bolts.
I'm sure it was caused by a hard freeze recently. So my question is...what do i do now?
There is no water in the oil, but other than that i don't know what to do. Is there something else i should check to make sure the block is fine? If it's just the manifolds, how much will two of them cost, and how labor intensive is it if i do it myself?
Any info is appreciated...and i hope this in the right sub-forum.
