    $2500 boat

    It was whatever came with it since it is light tan I assume it is volvo. I ordered some but since I am putting it in the water for the season I may not get a chance to change it till 2nd week of June. But between now and then I may only put about 8 more hours on it.

    $2500 boat

    So have now about 8 hours on it without issue. Only issue may not be an issue at all after doing some reading but the SX outdrive clunks pretty hard into reverse.

    Boat won’t start

    overheating.. Hmm I'd do the impeller first before tearing the head off make sure that resolves your overheat issue. May need more pressure on engine then to put it on hose to be sure that's fixed Prolly a lake test to get temp up to operating temp. Let us know what you find in the impeller...

Was looking at other lake options near by and was wondering how Sandusky Bay was just for recreational...

    Faria tachometer?

    Idling out of winterization at only about 175 -200 rpms.. throttled up sound much better so I'm going to run this tank out on Friday and see what it does after that spark plugs look brand new so hoping it's just the fuel.

    Faria tachometer?

    Replaced tach and everything worked. Why I wasn't getting any volts from multimeter has not been figured out... the only thing I can figure is that the grounds are crossed somewhere? But then I would be getting the little negative sign on my multi meter. Right? And everything would be blowing fuses?

    Never again.. exhaust manifold..

    They didn't fit the tapped holes for the new manifold. I even had to get a big spacer to correct the size difference between the BAR manifold and the oem Volvo penta one. Every bolt on OEM was between 1/8 and 1/4 to big for the aftermarket BAR manifold...

I replaced the manifold with aftermarket BAR manifold that was recognized As a "direct replacement" for a Volvo penta 3.0 GLP-C in doing this every single piece of hardware that was original needed replaced...
