I found this thread about flushing engines with muffs I don't know if this pertains to you but found it interesting http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php?t=44372
This is a very interesting article. I'm thinking that my problem was 90% root cause exhaust, but... I'm still worried about flushing, seems like a really "dangerous" procedure, especially (like my boat) when you have the flush port piped right into the engine (just downstream of the water pump). If the pressure is too high, there's no where for it to go but into the engine doing some really nasty stuff in the process.
What does everyone think? Is the "risk" of flushing worth the gains in manifold/riser/engine life? Or is the risk actually very minor and overblown by some of these articles?
