How can this happen
- So another bit of bad luck unfortunately here are the details maybe the OSO community can chime in so I can better understand what went wrong, here are the details
New HP500 carb stock rebuild, New gen6 block, pistons, rods, bearings, new oem cam from mercury, new intake, oil cooler, new EMI thunder dry exahaust etc. Rebuilt stock heads , new springs valves retainers rocker arms push rods, lifters etc, castings were freshy magnafluxed decked etc Had Motor put back in the boat took boat to ramp idled out of 5mph zone 5 minutes ran the boat up to speed 3-5k rpm for 20 minutes boat ran perfect returned home put the boat up on the lift, no alarms no overheat or oil pressure problems, like I said boat ran great 2 weeks later after lots of rain in NY decided to take the boat out after work, idled down my canal 10 minutes..... jumped on plane only brought up to max3000 rpm;s almost completely on plain and motor started stumbling and missing bad, limped to the nearest boat ramp pulled boat out. Less than 45 min on the new motor probably less than15 min above 1,200 rpm, My boat shop calls me with news that I have 0 compression on # 5 and # 7 cylinders, pulled heads and below are pictures of what he found, two bent exst valves that kissed each piston... what do you guys think https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tlt8p1gf6...PE67ZEx_a?dl=0 |
Drop box isn't opening for me anyway. Does it look like anything went out the exhaust? Without seeing hard to say but remember foreign objects can transfer from port to port and then blown out. Hydraulic roller cam correct? Check number 5 and 7 exhaust manifold. Wish I could open pic. Will try a shut down and reboot.

Was able to open up and see pics. Wtf. Got me... you check spring pressure on seat and open? Only thing I can think of. How many hours are on valves? Degreed cam? I feel bad for you!

Any thoughts here guys. Nothing obviously went in through the intake ports. At least no evidence anyway. Fatigued exh valves? I have no idea.

Valve guides need to be checked,,,possibly to tight of a clearence
|
/Who rebuilt the motor?
|
Were the lifters replaced ?...........seems odd...5 & 7 fire back to back............seems like a timing event
|
Exhaust valve looks rusty to me
