Mercruiser 5.0L Thunderbolt Ignition
Serial number is not visible
Boat is 2004, not sure what year motor is
Before motor warms up it kills under almost any acceleration. Whether I put it in gear (forward or reverse), or have it out of gear but increasing throttle I have to nurse it up ever so...
This sucks, 3 days prior to Memorial Day weekend. I will try to be as detailed as possible. New to boats, and not a wiring expert.
04 Four Winns with a 5.0L Merc I/O.
Installed Depth Gauge. Powered it by splicing to the Yellow wire on back of ignition because I didn't want constant power...
Looking for a used boat - never owned before. Found a Four Winns Freedom 180 ('04) on the internet. Boat looks to be in extremely good shape in the pictures (haven't looked in person yet). Seller didn't list hours, so I asked. Says boat doesn't have hour counter on it.
How concerned should...
I read 'finding the perfect boat to buy'. Glad I did. After scouring the internet for a month I was beginning to think I might as well just buy a boat, not be picky, and get out on the lakes next summer and learn what I can. None of the boats I see are screaming out that they are "the boat"...
