Guys thanks for the assistance. I also just watched a video of the drive in operation and now understand the theory of operation. The prop is over running the clutch dog teeth because there is no water pressure against prop helping seat it into the gear which is causing the popping. I'll get her...
Good evening all. I recently installed a new water pump and shift shaft bushing. Now, I have ratching in the lower unit that seems to come from the shift crank, spool or propeller shaft. I've attached a video for reference.
Is it possible the shift crank or something shifted when I pulled the...
Well I called Sierra tech support and they were unable to tell me the resistance values of the switch but did agree to refund me. Only other thing I know to do is get a replacement gauge but teleflex no longer makes my model. Any other suggestions?
Good evening,
I recently replaced my starboard trim sending unit with a sierra unit and cannot get the gauge dialed in. Symptoms are that gauge is pegged up with key off engine off and key on, engine off. This seems normal for this gauge as I verified other internet pictures show the same...
Ok, so I think the issue is this is the incorrect Slave Solenoid, even though I understand they function the same. This P/N is a SAZ-4201 which looks to be used on anything from Kohler applications to heavy truck lift gates. If I found the correct solenoid for my application, it is an 89-96158...
I should mention the the engine currently starts and runs in current configuration without the ground wire hooked up to I terminal. FT said he thought the solenoid may be chassis grounded. If this is the case would hooking the ground wire up to the S or I terminal cause a short to ground?
ok gotcha. So what then is the lower nipple that is capped on my carb for? Would it have been used on a 1998 or newer 5.7 but not an older 5.7 (1988-1994) model which I now have in my boat?
Scott06: that is a set screw that is in place and not installed by me. this is a different engine from original. Based on the casting number of the block its a 1988-1994 SBC and the boat is a 1998. I'm also assuming that the carb is from the original 1998 5.7 which probably had an electric fuel...
Gentlemen,
As previously discussed i have a 1998 sunesta with an older 1988-1995 5.7 in it. I'm getting close to being done with the wiring and have a question on the slave cylinder wiring.
Questions below:
1. I do not have any wire coming from the "I" ignition terminal and from doing some...
Currently there is only the feed hose from the pump to the carb. The overflow fitting has a set screw in the carb. Is there another hose fitting you are talking about?
