I I think my terminology is incorrect. When I said ring terminal I meant the large clamp terminal you see in the picture... Just like on a car or a truck battery my boat has a large clamp terminal on the battery post and that wire goes to the starter.
So I'm trying to figure out what other...
So I wanted to install a second battery with a perko switch.
I purchased a second battery, battery tray, two new 24-in battery cables, One new 24-in ground cable, and the perco switch
All three new cables have the 3/8 lug ends.
Well I want to go install today and on my current installation...
really?
i was told differently, that the purple/white wire was grounded to an engine or battery ground to set the thunderbolt V module into base timing mode.
this document also mentions that. Am i misunderstanding or misinterpreting something...
this area circled in red is where my wire is and the purple wire circled in yellow was my purple timing wire with a rubber cap inside it.
if you dont have that wire then you probably have thunderbolt IV in which case you dont have to put anything in base timing mode you just set your timing to...
Yes from my understanding you take the purple wire or purple wire with a white stripe that's right there near the carburetor I think it has a black cap in. You ground that wire and then you set your base timing at idle. Once it is set then you take the ground out of the purple wire then use your...
when i had this issue, it turned out to be the input shaft seal assembly that sits under the water pump. Gear lube leaked out of the water intake holes on the outdrive.

Finally got an engine cover that I was happy with.. I was really hoping that it would have the right spark plug spec on it for MR43LTS because it says 350 Magnum on it.. but unfortunately it still says MR43T.
I wanted it to be as correct as possible so that if I decide to sell this boat in the...
i bought the boat second hand so ill have to see why they changed it. Is this how boats from the 90s are from the factory? i know the boat had a factory CD player back in the day just not sure how it was wired. if it was wired the way it is now or if it was wired the way you all are suggesting...
I wasnt using a shop tachometer. We were just using an older analog snap on adjustable timing light and the tach on the dash.
to be honest i'm pretty sure the tach on the dash was closer to 3200 rpms and given that those are most likely inaccurate it was probably really closer to 2800-3000 rpms...

previous owner cut out the buzzer for the audio warning system. I found the cut wires under the dash and soldered in new bullet connector leads in the new quicksilver audio warning system kit i got.
audio warning system works perfectly fine now, turn Key on 1st stop, warning...
interesting theory you have there sir.
I highly highly doubt anyone went through the trouble of changing out gear ratios and leaving the original gear casing in tact with stickers. not with the backyard people i bought mine front.
most likely its the tach reading being off thats throwing your...
What makes you doubt the results? Do you think Should speed be higher? Rpm be higher? Lower?
i know I have a 1.62 as it says that on the actual outdrive and the outdrive serial also pulls up a 1.62 ratio. I Madea profile on sea ray website and plugged in my serial numbers and it says this
ENG...
Yes yes lol you guys love looking for anything that's possibly not marine and pointing it out.
I have many many other thread on here I made over the last 2 weeks and one of them was about wiring for fuel pump relay and oil pressure safety switch.
I have oil pressure safety switch wired up with...
im currently running a 14x19p prop quicksilver stainless. noting fancy and definitely not perfect.
if i'm running 4800 rpms with a 14x19p, what would going to a 14x21p stainless do, go up to 5000 rpms or go down to 4600 rpms?
