502MAG and steam smoke from exhaust
I have a Gen 6 502MAG with Merc stock exhaust manifolds.
The issue is this....I get alot of steam smoke out of my right (drivers side) exhaust tip at idle speed. Very little out if the other side. Anyone have any ideas??? I changed out the exhaust riser gasket on the right side thinkig it may have been leaking...but that did not help.
Thanks,
Mike
