So I bite the bullet and pay for a Merc. 525efi. I get the motor brand new only to find out, before the motor is even in the boat, there is water in cylinder #4. Ok, its under warranty, they should give me a new one, right? No!!! I now need to send it back to Mercury Racing for them to work on it. They are going to repair the bad motor and send it back to me. The process has already taken 2 weeks, now I have to send it back have them repair it and send it back. I am guessing another 3-4 weeks. So much for Mercury Racing!!!
Now Merc. racing tells me water sitting in a cylinder for several months does not hurt anything and they will just put new heads on the motor and everything will be fine. Is this true? I know it can't be good.
