    OMC King Cobra cooling issues.

    Also I was incorrect, the manifolds are also raw water cooled. I was thinking of another boat. Too many projects.

    OMC King Cobra cooling issues.

    I replaced the risers however the old risers looked great. They came off a freshwater boat, but I replaced them anyway. Now I have a different problem. I am getting water in the bellows/gimbal area. Is there a gasket for mounting the outdrive on the King Cobra. I have a regular Cobra mounting...

    OMC King Cobra cooling issues.

    OMC King Cobra cooling issues.

    Only the risers are raw water cooled. The manifolds are fresh water cooled. Manifolds are new last year when the new long block was installed. Oil is clean and shows no sign of coolant. I will try and do some pressure testing next. Thank you for the info.

    King Cobra outdrive seal

    I have a 1992 OMC 584dpeamh 5.8l with a King Cobra outdrive. Is there a seal for mounting the outdrive to the transom mount? The parts beak down does not list one. How do you keep water out of the bellows? Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

    7.4l oil coming from exhaust.

    I have a Mercruiser 340 inboard that is getting water in the oil and oil coming from the exhaust. I replaced the intake manifold gaskets that appeared to be torn. I flushed the oil out several times but still have the oil in the exhaust. This is a fresh water cooled engine with fresh water...
