Milky Oil, Please Help
I am brand new to the site guys, but I have a problem. I have a 23 foot 1997 Scarab. It has the 502 with procharger. I took it out this spring to just see how the winter had been on it. It ran and sounded fine, run around 78 mph on GPS not all she could do. Came back to dock and checked oil and noticed it was milky.
I thought it might be condensation, so I changed the oil a couple times and ran it, got milky again. I noticed a little hesitation on take off, could this be intake gasket. Overall performance is still good. May just haft to start with intake gasket and work to the heads and then intake. One other thing, is I noticed that my flappers seemed to be worn out for my exhaust. Could it be reversion? Any help is greatly appreciated, love the site. I will post pics later. |
when you winterized the boat,did you drain the exhaust manifolds?if not,you might have cracked them,that will cause reversion.seen it happen before.goog luck,let us know what you find,and welcome to oso.:ernaehrung004:

sry about that...no manifolds, I have headers also...so think its a gasket?
|
or being a 97 if your exhaust is stock the riser gaskets could be leaking too.what is the engine hours at ?
|
not stock exhaust...new engine was put in about three years ago, brand new, old exhaust was removed and replaced
|
gotta hate those winter gremlins
|
yeah, hate looking for a problem when it can be trial and error
