My trim was acting funny this Sunday. Got to the ramp and it wouldn't trim up. It go down, but not up. I am able to get one instance of up if I wack the relay with a wrench. OK so easy right? Old sticking relay, replace move on. Except this is not like any of the parts in seeing that came with...
I am getting my 253 cobalt reupholstered and I went to the boat show this past weekend to get ideas. In addition to the normal vinyl were all use to seeing there was a canvas type material used on almost all the jet and wake boats that I absolutely love. I had my upholstery guy come by today...

Wife an I were on a long stretch of no wake and I was running the blower. Turned the blower off and it sounded like it was still running. Didn't think much of it (thought I was being paranoid). Went to a restaurant, and upon leaving the same no wake the motor started...
So I know for a fact this topic has been discussed before because I've searched and found some threads about it but my situation is slightly different.
Here's what happen....
Bought a boat mid summer last year off a coworker of my dads. He was in the very familiar place where he needed the...
So I just rebuilt my demon 500 cfm for my 2010 Volvo penta 3.0L and it actually went really well first try. Problem is the rebuild kit came with a 30CC accelerator pump and the stock one was a 50CC. I've got the lever arm adjusted so that the 30CC works fine (e.g. moved the cam up to the closest...
So does the 3.0L actuate the fuel pump with a push rod that is driven by the cam? And if so how do you orient this correctly during the install? I did not note this when I removed it last year and is it possible that it fell out and is in the oil sump? Hoping I didn't make a rookie mistake. I...

Fuel pump went out last season and i replaced it with an electric mr gastket pump and it seemed to run fine at the very end of last year but did have a little studder similar to right now but i figure it was a crappy pump. This season the mr gasket pump was already bad...
Was getting the boat ready to start the season in the driveway and went to pump the gas before attempting to start it like I always have to and couldn't get the throttle to move into drive or reverse. The button depresses but wont move forward or back. I can push in the center button and moving...

Stingray 180RX w/ Volvo SX outdrive
So when lifting the trim up, it sprays hydraulic fluid out of the 4 way manifold. I removed the retained and noticed the the far right one wasn't seated correctly. I would like to investigate whether that was the simplest fix ever or i need to replace some...

So yesterday when pulling the boat out of the water my buddy trying to be helpful "raised" the trim for an undetermined amount of time after I had already raised it and I noticed an oil slick in the water behind the boat. Asked some questions...
