I was cleaning up some stuff on the engine and noticed this hose zip tied close to the starter at the bottom of the engine. Engine runs great and no error codes. However, if this should be hooked up somewhere, I'd like to figure it out. If not, I'll just let it be......
What are my options for finding a IAC control valve for engine code 50FIPNCSCE? Is there an automotive equivalent from a Ford car/truck someone knows about? Can I test existing one with OHM meter? I cleaned connections, can I remove and clean entire unit? Erratic idle, hard starting at times...
I originally thought it was the lower octane fuel (87) my wife put in the boat that caused it but 3 tanks of (93), new inline fuel filter, new fuel/water separator, and a can of SeaFoam and it still tends to surge around this RPM. Fluctuates about +200 rpm and then back down. It's not horrible...
I've been to numerous sites (volvopentastore.com / marinepartsource.com) as I want to put 3 new belts on the motor - just so I know they are new - they seem ok but just aged. I've located below for raw water pump and alternator that I think is correct. However I'm hitting a dead end for the...
Does anyone know what these numbers mean for this prop? I have a '96 Celebrity with Ford 302. Outdrive is Cobra SX-C1 1.60. I googled and can't find anything to help determine what the numbers means. There is another part of the prop that just has the number 58 on it that I didn't bother...
Novice here looking to change fuel filter (not inline one - screw on type) - I can locate it easily but just looking for any pointers I should take into consideration before I do anything. I searched forums and found general info - one being make sure to have some fuel already in the filter...
Recently purchased this boat and I noticed the blower assembly partially dismantled and just laying in engine bay. Guess I'm not sure where this blower needs to be connected? Behind the engine I can tell there is a black vent hose that is open. This would be the hose you see behind the white...
Recently purchased a '96 Celebrity Fire Star with engine code 50FIPNCSCE - 316 hours. I was randomly looking over parts list for it and noticed a lot of core parts are out of production (starter, alternator, distributor, etc). Maybe there are plenty of aftermarket ones out there and just not...
Did these storage bins have drains in them to drain when the plug is pulled back in 1996? Water pooled up on cover and some came back into boat and into the storage and just sits there. This boat had all new floor and stringers put in so I wondered if they forgot to drain this storage or if it...
I've searched and scrolled for 2 hours and haven't found how to rev the motor on my 96 Volvo/Penta Ford 302 - mine doesn't have any additional buttons that other posts mention. I've attached a pic of the shifter. I believe the small button to the left is a circuit breaker button. Only other...
