Ran my boat on the hose for a few minutes today to check a few things out. I forgot to turn on the fuel pump and it stalled when I was making a quick carb adjustment. Now I have milky oil. I'm new to this site and jet boats so I hate to ask a dumb question, but is that common or should I start looking at heads & gaskets?

Another thing. I drained the oil and was changing the filter after that and my filter must have been put on by a superhuman because I have tried every trick in the book and can't get the dam thing to budge. I even took out the header on that side to get better leverage. Any suggestions will help. Really don't want to pull the engine.

Do you have an extra large set of  Channel locks?  I have had those filters crush like that. There are three ways to get them off .

1. Large channel locks, grab it as high as humanly possible turn steady and slow.

2. Pull the rest of the body of the filter off and use a pin wrench (spanner ) or grab the holes in the top of the filter to spin it off.

3. Use a large screw driver to "taco" or "patato chip" the base and spin it off.  The gasket is what is stuck, not the threads.

Good hunting bro.

If you can get a chisel is long flat tip screwdriver on the edge of the filter and beat it with a hammer to bend the lip down it should soon off, when that happens
