I guess I'm the newest member of the Drain Plug Misfits. I had two projects to complete on this new/used boat before I could start enjoying the summer, impeller housing and replace the bunks on the trailer. I changed the starboard impeller housing and I had enough time left to put the boat in an swap out bunks before the afternoon T-storms started. I wasn't really in the prelaunch checklist frame of mind because I was just dropping the boat in temporary and taking it right back out. I made such quick work with the bunk replacements that I told the wife lets take it for a quick spin before the weather gets in. And 15 mins later my engine compartment Was half full of water and when I throttled down they both shut off. I got towed back to the dock and I've been following every thread with a similar story to help fix my issue.
Here's what I've done so far and where I'm stuck. I pulled the spark plugs on the starboard engine and turned it over and water came shooting out of all 4 cylinders. On the port side not much water and only out of the rear 2 cylinders. I put in new spark plugs and when I tried starting the engines neither will light off. They both turn like a normal start but there's no combustion. I also noticed that there's no beep when I turn the port key switch. I know I'm just avoiding the inevitable task of digging into the ECU's but I just want to make sure there nothing else I can check before trying to get at those boxes in the mid day heat? @HELP
