Not Telling
Ok, I got word back from the shop. The cause of the this issue was a blown fuse for the fuel pump that supports the Vacume Seperator? It boat had sat for 2 years so they assume some debris is in there so they will take the pump apart and clean it.
HOWEVER, with their diagnosis, they noticed that Cyl 5 had low compression, it wouldn't even register 100PSI. Their solution for this....is to replace the block with a factory Mercury block.....now this seems a bit odd to me because normally you hone or bore the cylinder get a new piston and rings and you're good to go....no?
Now, the boat sat for a few years, could it be a valve or something that just needs to work it's way back to normal
?
I told them to just fix the fuel pump and make sure the spark plugs and stuff were good and I was going to take my chances.
Thoughts?
