I was fooling around with the boat and I saw something that may be related to my problem. And if not it will create a problem later
I replaced the spark plugs not to long ago and today I noticed that the top 2 on each side of the engine were rusted and you could tell that salt water was seeping out of both thermostat housings dripping on the 2 plugs. Now when at idle and with the cowl off it does not leak but I imagine under increasing throttle it does leak.
Would this water going all over my spark plugs not effect it?
I took off the thermostat housings and there was no gasket to prevent it from leaking
Either way tomorrow I will replace the 2 thermostats and the 2 housings, they were not in great shape so that will be replaced also
Just wanted to know if this could be the issue or part of the issue
