Another orphan showed up at my doorstep. This time it’s a “bloody” British Seagull.
Just by adding fuel, and running it a bit in the tank, it cold starts on the first pull. That’s great.
The problem is that there is no water coming out of the telltale in the bottom of the block. I have tried blowing compressed air through the opening, but still no water.
This is my first experience with these motors. Do they have to be on a moving boat in order for the cooling system to work, or is there an issue here? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Aquasonic, do you have parts manual or service manual for your motor?
If not, pm me your email address.
Agree with previous statements. Water jackets get alot of scaling and rusting that block pathways. If you experience furthur flow or cooling issues, best remedy is to remove the head and manually clean out the pathways.
What year is your motor?
Cheers,
