Recently bought this 1990 250DA with the 5.7. The boat never has run right since I bought it. I changed the oil and serviced the lower unit when I first got it and have only run it about an hour.
Died on the lake, had to get towed in. Loaded it on my trailer and started taking a look at it in my shop Found about a gallon of water in the pan, so, looks like the motor is coming out.
Question, in order to pull the motor, do I need to drop the outdrive? How does the motor separate once the bell housing bolts are removed? Decent mechanic, but little Mercruiser experience.
I want to rebuild it so I know what I have moving forward.
Thanks for the info, in advance!
