I do not believe that to be true. The throttle shafts are also sealed on a marine carb. There may be other things as well. It is not a straightforward conversion.

Steve,
E-mail me I might have some of the componets you are looking for at a very reasonable price.

thanks.

yes and i did a compression test and fond 3 bad. looking forward to taking eng out so i can inspect. this will give me a idea where i am at. one of my plugs looked like it was hit with a hammer so iam sure the motor needs to come out to be fixed and at this point it douse not matter what happen. i am sick to my stomach about it and not having any fun.

all of them i think? pulling the motor tomorrow. have no compression.i am not sure what happen and at this point the only thing i can do is hope the block is OK.

i guess that is possible.

you are right that is what happened! i have to admit i made a large mistake that i can only say i wont do again! i didn't see leaving the watter on while i tried to get boat started a problem. i thought the watter just went through the coolant part of the motor and out the exhaust. i have only owned outboards and io's and never had this problem.
i pulled the plugs out and drained the oil and watter.one of the plugs were broke so things don't look good! i turned the motor over and only heard a slight knock that could, only be a lifter but i no it is wishful thinking.i had to take a break because i just cant take anymore bad news especially when i am creating all of it. tomorrow i will do a compression test. i am also worried about a leak that is located under the watter pump and at oil pan.that leak was not their before i hydrolocked it.
desperately need impute. wish i asked about running watter without starting engine but this morning i would have thought that was silly!
thanks for letting me vent.

Sorry to hear about your motor.

Steve,
If the boss around the 1/8" NPT is large enough, you can drill an tap to 1/4" NPT. Always use brass pipe plugs.

With the gasket between the manifold and riser, you're going to have to open it up, clean up the mating surfaces (if real bad machining may be needed), make a gasket and put it back together.

i am sorry for not being more clear. on the port side i have two leaks. one is at the drane plug, i have taped the hole with 1/8 pipe thread and put a new plug in but their just isnt enough thread to seal. i also have a leak were the elboe meets the riser. if you look on my profile pic u can see a bult was installed throw the risser and elbow to hold a seal. this was done by preveis owner and i do not wish to keep the boat with micky mouse repairs. i would like to replace the complete exhost manfold from the head to the exhost. i am very greatfull for any imput.
