    My last gas fiasco was on a set of Mercruisers with raw water cooled fuel pumps. Alloy case was ate thru and water all in the fuel system.
    I got him going but that was THE LAST hands on I'll do on these later head aches.

    I hope the OP gets going with out having to throw in limbs to pay for it.

    No we have not hooked up scan tool but I did remedy the problem. After swapping out the manifold temp sensors with the other engine the problem movd to the other engine. I cleaned the sensors but one was Still bad. I replaced the manifold temp sensor and problem is solved.
    Thank you all. for your help!
