    trolling for hours then oil pressure alarm goes off

    Would do same with alarm going off Need to find out what actually happened. Start back up and oil press is good so that's not the issue. If you have an alpha drive, motor won't go above 2500 and could be coupler gave up, and you started overheating

    The thingy is a check ball and is used to restrict water from coming in past it when running. It allows water to pass in other direction during winterization

    Your correct, restrictor goes next to manifold I'm looking at the manual prior to posting link and looked like PPT posted it correctly, so I linked it for visual. Comparing PPT to manual I see PPT is showing how to place gasket with a closed cooling, BUT they should be showing a block off gasket

    Bravoitis Repair Question

    ok, that is a compression fitting, so the rubber when compressed will hold the plastic pipe The drive has water pressure against it but not that high. So long as the pipe is inside the fitting, and the rubber disc is compressed as listed in documentation, it will hold

    I looking for just how the water flows thru the motor and out to see if there is something on the port side which can restrict flow.

    Using SN 0m312634 You can have up to 2 pumps The reason I say up to 2 pumps is because this was the change over period. If you do not have a pump Boost the fuel filter, you only have one pump which is below the port side under the motor mount. Get a gas can, small or large doesn't matter...
