I ran the Nissan yesterday in prep for an upcoming long weekend.

I noticed this corroded bolt. Have to replace it. There is a twin on the Port side of the engine.


I think it's item #21 in this image from [url="http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Nissan/Outboard/2007/NSF9.8A3/CYLINDER%20%26%20CRANKCASE/parts.html"]www.boats.net[/url]

Anyone able to confirm #21 is that bolt?

I'd be concerned about the fittings below as well. Looks like it will have to be removed before you can remove bolt 21 anyway.

Is it possible that the thermostat housing is leaking salt water onto the bolt like mine? I noticed some corrosion around beneath the area and purchased some replacements.
