Sat For Over 10 Years!!!!!!!!

[woody82270]

Any of you following my posts know the story already. Chiefalen knows more than most, so I expect you to chime in here boss. Boat sat for over 10 years, previous owner said oil in water or vice versa, he can't remember. I looked, all systems clean. Gonna try to start her, what do I need to do before hand? What do I need to look for? Lube up? Etc., etc., etc.

Whatever you do, don't try to start it if it sat 10 years with a oil/water question. If there is water in the oil, it will be in the bottom of the pan and will go streight through the critical parts of the engine. Drain or suck it out and check for water and then you will have a clue where to start. I f there is no water, then new oil and alot of orher things to check before starting. Impeller for 1.
