Great little engines, I have the same one in my 1989 Bayliner.:)

For sure. Can't kill em if you keep oil in them. The owner of this one has had several with 300k+ on each. Typically the body rots around the drivetrain.

Got to love that dye! Simplifies things and takes a lot of guess work out of tracking it down.

[@NotSoGrandGarage]

Indeed it does. This truck is getting ready to come back to the shop... pulling the engine and revealing it top to bottom along with a few other things.

I figured it was going to be the camshaft front seal.
Might have to get some of that dye for a couple engines around here.

It works. Bottle is only ~$7 and it it saves an hour of hunting for a leak... its certainly worth it.
