Hello,

Anyone know if I could have damaged my 2001 mercruiser 3.0 running at
WOT for over an hour?

Afterwards, when I turned of my engine, it dieseled. Tried it a couple
times and it keeps dieseling. Ill try super unleaded next time out but
concerned if any permanent damage could have been done especially since
it was in salt. Never dieseled before. Only about 20hrs on it....sigh.

==================

It's not really designed and built to be run at WOT for more than a
few minutes at a time. At the very least you will considerably
shorten the life of the engine.
