Water over damn now, but in the future it is best to circulate oil via special tool inserted into distributor hole (I can't remember name of it) . It is turned using drill and circulates oil.

On choosing whether taking a low ball price - as a buyer there is no excuse to pay a price for a boat with a motor problem of any kind that doesn't include the full discount to replace said motor. I would have offered a lot less than 20K US for a boat that the motor ran crappy, had milky oil and a tick. Selling a boat is often a nightmare. All too often, buying a boat is a worse nightmare.

Much worse, even if it is surveyed...

Paid $11,000 for the new block and a tune up. Took it out for one final day of fun. Sold it to first potential buyer for $33,000...no haggling.
