I own a boat with two aq 170 engines. The boat is a 73ish Land N sea house boat. One engine is pretty well shot. Who,,Is in the know about these engines, what are my options??I need help
There isn't a lot to know about the inline 6. It's a relatively simple, cast iron engine. They were produced before V-6 engines became popular and are now no longer produced and outdated. Parts like the fuel pump, carbureators, and oil cooler are the same as some of the other Volvo 4 cylinder engines of the same era so some parts are still available.
Getting one rebuilt or finding a replacement in decent condition is going to take a little work. You'll have to ask around at local marine stores and keep an eye out on craigslist and ebay.
