Has anyone heard of riser/elbow internal welds failing on 8.1s leading to water leaking into heads and damaging valves? I’ve heard this story several times and am trying to find out if there is an issue with mercruiser OEM risers? I’m looking at replacing manis and risers but don’t want to have an issue with the OEM parts ? If so, what are good alternatives?
I’ve heard this has been an issue on these motors from early 2000-2012 so far. Anyone have any insights?
Thank you
