I have a lubrication question. Shell Rotella T is an oil normally used in diesels. Do you have an insight/opinion as to the use of this oil in the crankcase of an I/O?

Would you mind to do a video on how to set up and wire a remote starter like you are using to star your motor in this video. Im preparing to do the same thing with my new motor and want to run motor before installing in the boat. Thanks, Rick

i really enjoyed watching your video... what year is this engine? what rebuild did you do, changed the block ( i see one lying on the floor)? i have an engine running on my videos and just by listening to it, it sure does need some work, is yours stamped at the back GM 5.7? one thing i can't figure out from mine is the serial no. to cross reference the parts. anyway good job

Thanks for posting this video. I just bought a 84 wellcraft that has a cracked block, so my project for the winter is to pull it out, and rebuild the engine. 5.7 liter mercruiser like the engine in your video. Would you recommend just trying to find a used motor and using the block and rebuilding, or should I look for a new crate engine and just install that? Thank in advance for your reply!

Just curious as Im kinda new to inboard baots. I got a 77 lund cuddy Commander for $100 with trailer. Im not sure exact engine in it yet havent went to it but it sat for probably last 10 years most outside so I know a motor go thru is coming. Are most of the parts on the boat engines the same as the auto parts ie can most of the regular parts be bought at like an autozone. Obviously the marine engine has some things a car doesnt but all in all same things like carb parts,plugs,fluids,gaskets?

MY oldest brother just gave me his glastron carlson css. he says it needs a valve job. after watching some of these videos Im beginning to think it might be an exhaust manifold leak. my big brother is not mechanically inclined. i just have to leave Florida go to Randolph Massoftwoshits and pick it up. my question is whats the easiest way yo tell if it is the valves, or a push rod?
