Here's my situation, bought an 07 cobalt with 350 mag MPI. Mechanic didn't winterize correctly and the fuel module housing cracked. So he had it professionally welded which held up on the outside. However upon running the boat for the first time, there's water draining out of the bottom of...
I'm trying to see what the clearance height is on the trailer for a 2006 cobalt 240 with wakeboard tower. The tower I believe will unbolt in rear and roll forward or may have to be completely removed but I'm trying to get into an 8' garage door opening. Can anyone tell me what the clearance...
Just bought a new to me 2001 rinker fiesta vee 27 ft mid cabin. Had a new bravo 3 put on in 2013 due to sheared gears. All paperwork is accurate. My speedo doesn't work. Where should i start? I believe there is an input that is read on the lower unit to determine speed.
2nd, i have one...
I have a buzzer that goes off with key on acc and then usually goes off after starting the engine. The buzzer is now not going off. It's a lesser buzzer though. The engine oil pressure is good between 40-60. Temp slowly rises as i let the engine run. (i have not had it up to running rpms...
I took the lower unit off in order to have the seals pressure checked. I followed the manual to the t and this isn't the first time i've removed the lower unit. I had it in forward gear during removal and install. I have checked the shift linkage and it appears to be in place when installing...
I have a 5.7L 1996 mercruiser. I just want to make sure I'm not running hot. If I am sitting in the water, my temp is around 160. If I cruise at 35-45 for about 10 minutes then it goes up to around 180. After sitting for a couple minutes it's back down to 160. I am assuming this is normal...
I was doing some spring maintenance the other day and dropped the lower unit. I noticed a very small crack on each side of the bell housing around the trim sensors. It almost looks like a stress crack. Should I be concerned? If so can I patch it with jb weld or does the whole bell housing...
I have a trim gauge that is not working. I just replaced both trim limit and trim sender with new. I check all connections at the engine. trim limit works. I cannot get the gauge to move. I tried grounding the brn/white wire to the middle screw on the gauge and the gauge does not change. I...
:confused:I think I have a bad trim gauge. I just finished replacing the trim sender and limit switches. I have checked all connections. I have tried to rotate the sender but nothing happens. When the key is off the gauge reads up and when turned on it goes to 1/4 from all the way down.
I...
I was having difficulty removing a hinge pin with the 1/2'' allen. Got one but not the port side. Went and rented hinge pin removal tool from shop. That thing stripped with maybe 50 lbs of torque. I was sitting on my rear and pulling up. (I'm not muscle man either). I was pissed. That was...
I have a couple questions. My trim down will work and my trailer up will work however trim up will not work. Tilt/Trim gauge does not work either. I purchased new trim limit switch and trim sending unit. Should this fix my problem and is there anything I should watch for while replacing...
First of all I have a 5.7 L mercruiser 1996 and alpha one gen 2 lower unit with an oil reservoir.
Over the summer I have slowly been losing oil in the reservoir. I have put maybe 15 hours on the boat this summer. It went from the full line nearly to the fill line following the four or five...
My fuel gauge is not working. I have checked the gauge itself and it works when you ground it. The gauge always reads full and every once in the while when you tap on the gauge it will move but always goes back to full. When engine is off the needle goes all the way down. I have pulled out...
I am trying to fix the trim gauge and trip up. The trim down and trailer button both work. I have tried adjusting the trim sending unit and the trim limit switch and neither fix the problem. I have check the wiring on each and it does not appear to be broken.
Anyone have suggestions for me...
