    2006 Glastron GX 205 - 20-amp fuse at ignition keeps blowing

    Update from our testing. Using the circuit tester, every accessory fuse under the dash works fine (light comes on). Testing the 4 wires at the ignition, the battery input (B), triggered the light, but the other three didn't do so. For the heck of it, we bought a new ignition switch, wired...

    2006 Glastron GX 205 - 20-amp fuse at ignition keeps blowing

    Car Toys did the install so maybe that wasn't a great idea. We've tried the switch with all three settings (#1, both, #2). Hopefully we can figure out how to test with original. Stay tuned.

    2006 Glastron GX 205 - 20-amp fuse at ignition keeps blowing

    I love this idea, however since we didn't install the stereo system, battery and battery switch, we aren't sure how to do this. So many wires! If you have any advice on how to bypass this easily, I'd love to hear. I think I read we could disconnect the battery and run a jumper wire to the...

    2006 Glastron GX 205 - 20-amp fuse at ignition keeps blowing

    Getting boat ready for the first time out on the water this season. Batteries are healthy (checked using multi-meter on the posts), blower and other accessories work. However, when turning the key, nothing happens. Gauges don't work, no clicking. After a day of research, we found a 20-amp...

    Milky Oil in 2006 Glastron GX 205 with Volvo Penta 5.0 GL-E

    I just posted a longer reply. They look good for the most part. Some small rust on the horizontal surface but the new repair shop feels they are fine and to not bother spend $ to replace

    Milky Oil in 2006 Glastron GX 205 with Volvo Penta 5.0 GL-E

    I'm sorry to be so delayed but we've been trying to figure out what to do. We ended up taking the boat to a different repair shop to get a second opinion. They actually think the intake manifold is ok and not the culprit. Exhaust manifolds look good too and the heads were pressure tested fine...

    Thanks Augoose. They look fine. We are going to replace them anyway as they are old. Thanks again for your reply.

    Milky Oil in 2006 Glastron GX 205 with Volvo Penta 5.0 GL-E

    I'm a newbie to this forum and not a mechanic but was hoping some experts on here might be able to validate our theory and plan with our milky oil issue. We've owned our boat about six years and at the end of last summer, the boat died on us when towing a skiier. Temp was fine. It would turn...
