    Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-E - Won't roll over

    No water in the cyls, plugs don't look steam cleaned, and nothing comes out when rolling the engine over, which it does now that the plugs are out. What concerns me is what would have caused it to get in the condition where I couldn't roll it over without removing the plugs.

    Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-E - Won't roll over

    Is there an easy way to see if there was water down in there if I don't see it coming out? And if there is water down there, how am I going to get it out? And what else does that mean I wonder

    Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-E - Won't roll over

    Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-E - Won't roll over

    Actually occurs to me there are probably no plugs this is fuel injected I believe. Trying to roll it over without the serpentine belt did no good. Same thing seems like it starts to roll over and then stops.

    Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-E - Won't roll over

    Hoping I can trouble somebody with more watercraft knowledge than I, to offer any advice. I ran into a problem with my boat the other day on the water for the first time this year. 2005 Smokercraft Deckboat, with the subject line engine. Always runs solid. After about 2 hours on the water, I...
