I got the new u joints in. I listened with my stethoscope in four corners of trim (up & right, up& left, etc.) With nothing but a whirring noise. I gave it a little throttle and noticed a slight ticking develop in all positions that did not change with position. It was not at all like the...
Yeah old on the right. All the replacements listed on that sticky thread have the grease zirk right there...I guess i should just buy the right one or sealed? They also aren't the same size exactly. With the caps they are, but the c clip grooves are not the same distance apart. Wouldn't that be...
I bought one of the u joints from the list in the sticky thread. Got the old ones out and noticed they don't look the same and are not the same size. The caps are the same. Is this going to be a problem? New on the left, old on the right.
Does it matter that ago these u joints seem to have the zirk in a different place? They are in between the cross instead of in the middle of the body. Some are on the bearing cap (moog 246).
I do not see any clips on the outside. I can't read the serial number that is stamped behind the sticker on my drive, but it is old enough to have greasable gimbal bearing... the u joints installed are stamped "Singapore L15N1-1F". I saw a list of auto u joints that are supposed to wheel with...
The noise changed from a growl to a clanking, so I was curious if i made something worse/ different. I was really hoping i didn't have to do the ujoints. Can I just replace the cross bearings?I have heard it may be possible to use automotive u joints for much cheaper than the $100+ for each u...
1997 rinker captiva 232 7.4l bravo 3. I can not read the serial number. I had some low growling coming from the rear last season during tight turns under load like tubing. I replaced the gimbal bearing this spring. The old one was greasable so I replaced it with a greasable one (sierra...
Gas did squirt in the first test. It had been sitting since i last had it out a couple weeks ago, so plenty of time for a repeat of the problem since it was only sitting for a day the last time. Upon closer inspection, I noticed the choke was not fully closed, so I adjusted it a little more...
So I took it out on the water last weekend, and had the same problem with not wanting to start. Gave it 5-6 pumps on the throttle and cranked for about a minute in 5-10 second intervals with no luck. A couple squirts of fuel in the carb and it fired right up with no issues at all. Ran perfectly...
