Is there any difference in head gaskets when buying them online. Like are they all the same size or are there different shapes

Like any aftermarket mercruiser 3.0l gasket. Probably not oem though due to price

Yeah but I figured blown head gasket would be the best scenario. I found out other reasons would be like a crack in the motor or the manifold so I’m going to replace the head gasket and if one of those is the reason I’ll more than likely find out when I take everything apart

The oil in my 1996 bay liner keeps getting water in it so I’ve come to the conclusion that my motor is cracked or I blew the head gasket. Praying that nothing is cracked I’m going to attempt to change the head gasket. Have the gasket shapes changed any over the year or can I buy any 3.0 head gasket?

I’m trying to get my boat back running and today it finally cranked but after I turned it off I saw oil coming out of the exhaust exit at the back. 3.0 mercruiser engine

I let the battery charge some and also put the jumper box on it and got it to engage. I guess I’ll look into getting a battery now.

Is there any other things that could cause the relay to rapidly click or just the battery

The starter has been replaced. And is it still a battery issue if I’ve used a jumper box and got the same result
