- 1989, rebuilt Mercruiser 454, 100 hours
Hi there,
I bought this boat with 15 hours on Rebuilt engines, and was confident as I got to see the entire invoice leaving the previous owner paying $20000 in the end.
So far have had no issues and have about 100 hours on them since rebuild but when I checked the oil yesterday I noticed the port engine was at the add mark (About 1 litre missing) and than I thought there is also a bit of white smoke from the port exhaust at about 3000rpm. Starboard smokes a bit but not as much as port. I'm worried, seems odd with only 100 hours. And the smoke was there from day one but I didn't really think too much about it. I would love some input on this subject, engines perform perfect at least! :smt024
