[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 192731, member: 3278"] May be nothihng more than the shut down circuit from the key switch that is still closed from water. Thing is........that engine has to be started within hours of submersion. Oiling the cylinders is certainly a nice thing but the critical items are the crank and rod bearings. Water has migrated into those and is sitting in them and unless the engine is started fairly quickly permanent damage will occur. There is a post down farther that you should read. Threw my motor overboard I think it is called. [/QUOTE]
