I picked up a core engine from a junk yard and while I was doing enough of a teardown so that I could get it out of my truck I put a wrench on the alternator bolt to see if the engine would roll over. To my surprise the engine rolls over. Have any of you had experience with aan type 4 that's been underwater?

My son flooded the boat a few years ago.
It had over 5 gallons of salt water inside. I drained and changed the old 5 times, ran it and changed it. Thing ran fine after that. |
