    4.3 Mercruiser - randomly dies

    Clues I'm seeing Watching your vid I see you pump the throttle when it dies prior to restarting. 1) Once the boat is running the first time the carb fuel bowl should always be full and not need pumping. Even if it does need a bit more fuel pumping it more than once might cause a flooding...

    Find a NAPA store, they should have O-ring assortment made from Nitrile Rubber (NBR/Buna-N) or Fluoroelastomer (FKM/Viton)

    Crusader 350 w/ Velvet Transmission: Locked up after brief shutdown

    Opinion: manufactures defects happen and they are not often they happen at the same time or same item. While changing both "might" guarantee this will not happen to the other motor, IMO it's a one off.

    Looking for tips pulling a VP Gen V engine out of boat

    Crusader 350 w/ Velvet Transmission: Locked up after brief shutdown

    I hope the bore scoping shows something, but with it being unable to turn by the crowbar in either direction, I'm thinking seized bearing. If a rod broke or crank broke it should still move some if not one direction but would the other even a small amount. Not as bad as a Silverton but did...

    Crusader 350 w/ Velvet Transmission: Locked up after brief shutdown

    Glad your marina guy didn't break the crank shaft bolt Don't know how many times someone has said, put a socket on the crank shaft bolt and see if you can move the motor, then they have yet another problem when it snaps off. Hope they can find and fix the issue at least cost
