What's going on here? There's no problem in starting the engine (after a couples of priming), but it keeps dying soon after as heard in video 1.
I can keep the engine running if I keep it above 1500 rpm.
Video 2 shows how revs is going up and down by it self, before it dies (when the engine is...
First my engine is a Mercruiser 5.0L carbed from 2001. SN 0M359543
The engine alarm came on/off starting from around cruising speed (3000 rpm). I then changed the water temp sensor (the one with yellow wire), and it seem to be working for a couple of days. The alarm only sounded when I started...
Has anyone tried or know about the "KUS Analogue NMEA2000 Converter NKC42"?
I would like to get my analogue oil pressure and water temp gauges connected to my nmea2000 network. I have a carbed 2001 Mercruiser 5.0L Thunderbolt V engine in a Rinker 232cc. It seems that it should be able to connect...
Yesterday after 2 hours run with cruising speed, we stopped, with engine off, for about half an hour, just outside out harbor. The last run into harbor i gave it full throttle and trimmed the drive. Just when I pushed the trim button all electricity disappeared for a short moment (my...
I have a Mercruiser 5.0L carbed engine from 2002 where the alarm buzzer suddenly has stopped working. When I put ignition on it wont go on as it used to. But when the engine is running and I ground the drive tube it goes on, and also when i ground the oil level sensor. So it seems that it's just...
I was about to change my spark plug on my mercruiser 5.0L (2002) so I bought the recommended ngk’s but as seen on the picture there’s a visual gap difference. Should I go with the new ones as is or re gap them as the old ones? (By the way does the old ones look ok). Thanks
During the summer i had to refill a little gear oil at my alpha one drive twice, so now it was time to check for leaks. As you can see at the picture i have a leak at the lower shift shaft. The manual say to split upper and lower unit and remove the 2 screws holding the shift shaft assembly and...
Sorry about the font. It was copy/paste from another program. When I tried to post it, it timed out, or at least I thought so, so I didn't see the result online.
Could you please point out which numbers I should tamper with at the picture. Thanks.
Hi. I have a 2002 Mercruiser 5.0L Gen+ with a Mercarb 2 barrel carburetor. Last year just before the season ended the carb got a new kit installed together with a ultrasound clean. That was because the rev jumped to 1500 rpm when put in neutral for 5-10 seconds and thereafter settled with around...
Hi. One of my 5 manifolds nuts needs to be replaced. I believe that the part no. is 0912506. Many US shops have them, but I live in Denmark and can't find a shop who has them. I dont think that they are so special, but dont seems to be metric, so if someone could tell me the size and thread type...
Is it possible to remove my my Alpha One Gen 2 drive without draining the oil. I have an external oil reservoir inside the engine compartment. The drive sits on a Mercruiser 5.0L Gen+ (2001). The oil is almost new and checked ok.
So if possible i would just put gear in forward, remove speed...
I'm in doubt about how I am supposed to rev the engine without engaging the gearshift on my Bayliner 1750 Capri with OMC 2.3L engine from 1988. The throttle handle, which is a US Marine, has an nonworking button underneath the horisontal part of handle. Should that be the button to disengage...
