Hello.Flywheel turns aprox one rotation then stops. Goes back same and stops again. When I put in gear prop just clicks clockwise, counter clockwise it jams. I pulled plugs & soaked cylinders with sea foam deep creep prior to this and let sit overnight as engine has sat for over a year with no use. hanks Scott

I did some tearing into the '71 135 hp Merc and found #1 cylinder shows shiny when shining flashlight into cylinder at each point of it jamming, other cylinders, that I can see, remain black. Am I looking at a broken piston rod? Cost to have repaired if that is case??

Thx Scott
