    2016 Mercruiser 6.2L ECT DTS Axius Cooling System Issue

    Ted, I would run some barnacle buster down the line, then see if the water pressure comes back. could also have a plugged HX. just pop the end caps off and look in the tubes.

    Weak spark, no start after bump in road 86 OMC 4.3

    I personally have never had luck with the pertronix modules longer than a few months. 3 out of 3 went bad. 2 of them broken wires where they go into the unit. easy to check for spark (before you pulled it all apart). and determine what is wrong.

    salt water in single cylinder

    all on the same bank of the motor points to a failed exhaust port. as stated, run the motor a bit, then take compression readings. from there, do a leakdown test. from there, fix what is broken, then fix the cause
