    Shift Cable Anchor

    While replacing my shift cables, I seem to have misplaced one of the anchors seen in the attachment as #43. Cheapest place I could find this lists it for $28 for the one small metal anchor. Seems a bit outrageous. Anyone have any ideas where I could pick one of these up? It's an OMC control...

    SX-M Cover Bolt Size

    Does anyone know what the bolt size is for the cover on the SX-M outdrive? There's three bolts there and the prior owner must have lost one of them. Thanks!

    5.8FL Water Pump Belt Change

    What is the procedure for changing the raw water pump V-belt on a 5.8FLPHUE? The service manual shows the belt going directly from the pump pulley to the crank, but there is so little room with the circulating pump pulley in the way that I'm not sure how to get this on without taking the...

    Crank mount raw water pump conversion question

    Re: Crank mount raw water pump conversion question Just wanted to update this thread as I go about changing over the pump. I removed the bracket and belt driven raw water pump from the engine. Just got the crank driven pump and it matched up really well. I am thinking I will fabricate my...

    Crank mount raw water pump conversion question

    I have a 5.8FL in a 1995 Larson 214. I would like to convert to a crank mounted water pump as the belt driven one seems expensive and hard to find. Is there any disadvantage to doing this?

    Carb Rebuild Kit for 5.8FL

    Hi, I'm in need of a carb rebuild kit for a 1995 5.8FL. It has a Holley carb with three part numbers on the carb 3854051, 30383-1, and 2694. I see that Summit sells three different Holley marine rebuild kits (703-47, 703-33, and 703-34). I'm having a hard time figuring out the difference...

    Slow Acceleration for 1997 Seadoo GTX

    Hey everyone, I just bought a 1997 Seadoo GTX and it runs great but has a weird problem accelerating from a standstill. If I pin the throttle and try to really get on it from a standstill, the engine revs up to the rev limiter and moves like I'm towing a 300 pound guy behind me. If I let off...

    Drain Hole Issue on 1995 Larson 214

The one worry I have is that the drain hole seems to have a bit of movement when I am putting in or removing...
