    You're going to have to trace out each wire.

    1989 four winns liberator 350 engine no spark!

    Absolutely. The replacement is sealed. You can't see the circuit board. The Mallory unit worked great for my 2003 (carburetor) 4.3L, Tb-V

    1989 four winns liberator 350 engine no spark!

    Mine is a 4.3 carbed engine from 2003. I just looked up my order history and the ignition module I bought is made by Mallory, part # 9-29804. I paid $46 in 2018. I don't know if your engine uses the same one, but I thought I'd post it for reference. If it doesn't help you, then it might...

    1989 four winns liberator 350 engine no spark!

    BINGO! Very helpful chart. I used it a few years ago to track down the very same ignition module under the distributor cap.

    1989 four winns liberator 350 engine no spark!

    Idk..I couldn't give you any part numbers. Run through the diagnostic flow chart before you start throwing parts at it. That being said I replaced mine a few years ago. If I recall it was only about $40. I think mine may have looked a little different. My original one was not a sealed unit...

    Can someone post up that TB troubleshoot chart? That should help.

    Is it bad to run a pwc out of the water?

    Ok, I'm informed! I just thought it didn't seem too good running it dry. I never owned one, so I learned something new!

    Fender clips, source or part number?

    Just look up Perko fender locks, I found them no problem. Get the stainless steel ones as @JimS123 suggested. I wouldn't buy the chrome plated ones.

    Can't get boat even on bunked trailer.

    Yep, it's all about depth. You will get it. You just have to figure out the sweet spot and then you're golden. I idle toward the trailer and when I know my aim is good I kill the engine, raise the drive and the boat rides right up onto the bunks. Centers every time. I reach over the bow and...

    Can't get boat even on bunked trailer.

    I have my trailer fenders just covered with water which leaves about a 1/4 of the bunks out of the water. You need that little bit of friction and the bunks need to cradle, support the boat. You can't have the boat floating all over the place. It's all about knowing your setup. Once you get a...

    Fender clips, source or part number?

    Just to clarfy... I'm assuming you are talking about the Perko ones having the 1" spacing. Thanks for that measurement. The cheapo ones on my boat have a spacing of 1-1/8", so it won't be a direct fit with the existing holes. I don't know the spacing of the ones on the OP's boat. Well worth...

    Fender clips, source or part number?

    Good to know. Those look nice. I doubt it, but it would be nice if the screw holes matched the existing [inadequate] ones that are currently on my boat from the factory. I'm going to check those out and I suggest the OP do the same.

    Fender clips, source or part number?

    Be careful with those clips if there's any chop near your slipped boat. I found my fenders floating. They just hopped off those clips. I don't use them anymore. I now have a loop on the end of my fender lines. I slip the loop through the center of the boat's cleat and back around the two arms...

    Changing brakes on load rite trailer

    What I find amazing is the factory installed brake controller in my Silverado. From my truck's manual: "The ITBC system is integrated with the vehicle's brake, anti-lock brake, and stabilitrak systems. In trailering conditions that cause the vehicle's anti-lock brake or stabilitrak systems...

    Changing brakes on load rite trailer

    I think drum brakes are ok for fresh water use. I only dip into fresh water and my original brakes were drums, so it was an easy swap. Obviously disc brakes are superior in many ways. So I guess it depends on your application.

    Auxillary Breaker on AC panel

    Try the simple and easily accessible things first before you start tearing into the boat, such as the breaker and everything on that circuit. Breakers DO go bad, as mentioned. I would try that. Before you buy a new breaker, is there an equal value breaker in the panel that you can...

    Is it bad to run a pwc out of the water?

    I thought it was especially bad that he was revving it so much. It makes me think how people who buy used equipment unfortunately have no idea how the previous owner abused it. Shameful...

    Is it bad to run a pwc out of the water?

    I don't know much about pwc's, but I know it's bad to run a boat engine dry. I was pulling my boat out at the local ramp and the sound of a high revving engine caught my attention in the parking lot. There was a guy revving his PWC on it's trailer. Not just idling, revving it, probably...

    Changing brakes on load rite trailer

    I also switched from surge to all electric on my single axle drum brake trailer. I only run in fresh water, so I stayed with drum brakes. Here are my reasons: My master cylinder was full of rust. I hate bleeding brakes. Got tired of replacing slave cylinders. I absolutely hated all that...
