Re: Bent bracket on raw water pump is $140? Seriously?
Finally got my pump off. It looks like the bearing crashed from all the rust in there. Most likely caused by salt water back when it had a small little leak in Florida. I'm assuming the bearing seized up while I was on plane the other day...
Can anybody tell my why my raw water pump bracket is bent? And more importantly... why the new part costs $140?
It's part #8 on this parts list. Rather than holding the pump at the starboard side of the pulley, it's bent back over the top now...
i was surprised to do a search and find that nobody has ever asked about rust in their carb. I have a twin barrel Holley on my Penta 3.0GLP-E and I'm beginning to think it's one of the ones they recalled, seeing as how i have had to rebuild it twice due to corrosion.
This year when I pulled it...
Does anybody have an accurate part number for an 07 GLP-E impeller?
I think it's been changed twice since I've had my boat. I don't have a Volvo dealer local here, so I'm trying to find it online.
P.S. I'm looking for a part number, not a link on where to find it (none of the Volvo sites have...
Re: 3.0 GLP-E water leak... I made a pump tester
Are y'all referring to the mounting gasket or the internal shaft seal on the circ pump?
I've included a pic. Thanks again...
I have a water leak somewhere in the lower area of my serpentine belt (I can tell by the way it flings water off the belt in that area) and I was suspicious that it was my raw water pump, but now I'm not so sure.
I took it off and tried to build a tester for it. I basically plugged the outlet...
So where's the best place to get part numbers and parts for 07 and newer Volvo Penta engines? The sites on the forums here don't have engines that new. I just moved to Houston from Florida. I'm used to having boat parts on every corner, but you simply can't find them in the 4th largest city in...
Runs, idles and revs just fine on the muffs, but when I pulled it 3 hrs to Lake Travis (Austin, TX) this weekend, it wouldn't do anything more than 2500 RPMs. Idled and shifted in Forward and Reverse just fine. I had 6 Adults on the boat, so it was under quite a load. When I got anywhere above...
I have a 2007 Stingray 185LX, 3.0 Penta. It has a Faria digital depth finder in it, and the transducer is stuck down on the stbd floor of the engine compartment. It came from the factory like this.
So about the second season of boating, it started throwing out crazy numbers in places where I...
Okay... so you may have noticed my other post I just posted about the TRS removal.
On the other outdrive I can't get the prop off. Hadn't been greased in quite some time I don't think. How do you budge it loose? I'm going to go grab some penetrating oil and WD-40 and spray them down all day...
Put it in gear, remove prop, remove hydraulic tubes, loosen 6 nuts... I've gotten this far. Now I just can't get the dang thing to slip off. Seems like there's some corrosion around a few of the 6 bolts. I tried wedging wood in to a few diff places... nothing.
How do they get these things off...
Apparently parts for VOLVOS are a pain to find. It's an 07 3.0 Penta GLP-E motor. 107 hrs, lots of shallow driving in sand where I'm at. Need a new impeller. Anybody know where to get one from? I found a raw water pump rebuild kit that has the impeller but it's like 60 bucks. Doesn't interest...
Okay so here's the skivvy. The port motor idles at around 1300-1500 when in neutral. Once I put both motors in gear they both idle just under 1000 and nice and even and smooth. But when I pull them both out the port motor revs back up to 13-1500.
When I first bought the boat they both idled...
When I put the port side motor in gear there's a terrible grinding sound coming from the back of the boat. Not sure if it's the tranny or the outdrive or something inside the gimball.
The old boat mechanic I work with told me it could either be the bearing inside the gimball housing somewhere...
