I have a 30ft boat with crazy fuel gauges I don't trust, replacing the senders would be a major hassle. They are just not easy to get to with cutting up my deck with access hatches.
I have always wanted a fuel computer(s) for my twin 351 Pleasurecrafts.
How reliable are the fuel computers...
This has been going for two seasons and each time we think we have it fixed, I need some experienced help here. We've had enough theories!
Twin Pleasecraft 351 with velvet drive inboard system. When the boat is stopped for a short time such as pump out, refuel, ect and engines are still hot I...
30' (1984) year old Cruisers Inc avanti vee (twin 351 pleasurecrafts with port engine on two deep cycle and starboard on one starting battery (all new)). My buddy and I have the same boat with the same 12v voltage drop issues. To the panel Im good (12.5v or better) but by the time it runs to...
i just bought a 1984 Cruisers Inc Avanti Vee and have been giving it a hard upgrade on land for the last month. Previous owner mentioned voltage drop concern. Got rid of the battery isolator for newer combiners, anyways...<br /><br />no noticable voltage drop anywhere on the boat DC system...
every year i've had the boat professional sealed with shrink plastic (heavy blue stuff). i know when i gave the boat to the shop it was cleaned and the deck (fiberglass) was not oxidized.<br /><br />we'll we uncovered it today and i'm very disappointed. the fiberglass deck is heavily oxidized...
i've brought back from the dead a swim platform for our 21' bayliner. this is a teak unit with hardware. i have enough hardware "in hand" to do two of the four brackets. the brackets are a "swing" style for adjustments. the idea is low cost on this project and i'll come in under 25% the cost of...

i'm new to trouble shooting a inconsistant spark issue with PWC and specifically new to a the VR system with such engines. are they not similar to outboard systems?<br /><br />what voltage should i have at the battery during charging...as i'm getting inconsistant and low readings.<br /><br />any...

i'm getting inconsistant spark...sometimes it cuts out and stays out for a minute or to.<br /><br />good thermal switch<br />good batter and plugs<br />good on/off switch<br /><br />noted that Volt output at battery is bouncing between 4-6v. i'm assuming it should be 12v+. <br /><br />any ideas...
i must admit i've had bigger bends on props but this one has a chunk the a 1/2 inch wide taken out of it with a small tear/crack another 1/4 into the aluminum. it's a 15x17 on a V/P AQ125A (115hp). i straigtened the slight bend in the prop with a pair os pliers... <br /><br />my question is...
i'm got a V/P 4 cyc (AQ125A) and the book recommends the max RPM is 4400-4800 (WOT). although early in the season i only ever could get it to 4400 RPM.<br /><br />now it's late in the season (freshwater bottom growth?) and the max RPM are about 4200 and my respected mechanic says i have the...
i drop from crusing RPM 4000 to idle? if i've been running for 10+ minutes and drop to idle i'll get a small smell of anti freeze and an inspection shows posibly a 1/2 pint of anti freeze has come from the system.<br /><br />best i can tell it's acutally coming from the cap. should i suspect an...
any opinions on this setup? i haven't got into the details with the broker, but i'm assuming these are V6 engines...<br /><br />anyone have any success or short coming with twin config of these engines in a boat of this approx. size?<br /><br />thanks.<br />shawn
