Thanks, this is a big help. Which item number is the fuel pressure regulator or is that on another page? What about the MAP and MAT, mine are likely original 1997s? Or if they are not broken dont "fix" those?
Can anyone confirm location and procedure for getting to IAC valve. The manual I have says remove flame arrestor, disconnect throttle linkage, use a stud driver to remove throttle body, then rotate throttle body 90 deg to get to IAC on back of throttle body.
Is it not possible to unclip the...
To answer my own question, yes one can grease a zerc that is underwater. I did it, didnt help much, maybe a scooch, as predicted, but didnt hurt either. Still not sure I got any grease in the coupler on drive shaft using new 90 flex tip. This zerc is begging for a relocation or extension to...
Understood, I am presuming no water intrusion based on bellows inspecation and lack of water in boat nor mis alignment and do not know if and how much additional grease pumps are needed each year. Is it a closed system that needs zero or does it need ten and I only gave it 2 or 3 because I read...
I know this isnt the right way, but can I attach the grease gun nozzle (pumped full of grease) to the zerc on my Bravo 3 outdrive, and add additional grease to the gimball. I thought i gave it a couple pumps in the fall winterization, but want to see if more grease will quiet down a chuffing...
Hi All, thanks in advance for your guidance. So put the boat in today at the lake marina in NY and heard this chuffing noise immediately, which was surprising because I ran the boat twice on muffs in the driveway ( 20 seconds each time) and did not hear it. The only thing i touched this...
No, I dont think corrosion is happening on my engine after its been run in a freshwater lake, drained empty and sitting dry in the cold. I have put this cheap alcohol based anti freeze in and will not drain it so it doesnt affect any rubber and can mix with any little pockets of water that...
How often or when is one supposed to do the alignment check? What are the symptoms of mis-alignment? The bushings I see around the bolts are standing up, not collapsed. Sorry I dont see whay bushings you refer to.
