    ‘96 mercruiser power steering leak,

    Don't know of any showing how to disassemble the unit. My guess is it's not the unit, it's somewhere else. I bought one of them a long time ago thinking the same thing. By the time it came in I found it was the return line. The unit still sits on my shelf Most all of the Merc engine manuals...

Also require a ground (Black wire). There can also be a wire to light the gauge up at night. Last is a sensor wire and will vary in...

    Lower unit clunk

    There is nothing abnormal about hearing a clunk from the gears, there is a small amount of space between the gear teeth. When running you should only hear noise when going in and out of gear

    5.0 GXi-J fuel pump relay keeps tripping

    Wish I had something to offer, but like you I'm lost to what could be causing it I might be thinking about opening the box with a dremel to look inside Or start following wires out to see if they are also getting hot and where ever they go is also

    5.0 GXi-J fuel pump relay keeps tripping

    Things are not adding up. There is no reason that the relay should get even above warm unless something else has been added to the circuit. You say even the area next to where the 40Amp fuse is getting hot. That being the case, need to get in behind it to see what is causing that

    5.0 GXi-J fuel pump relay keeps tripping

    We went in to the problem assuming the fuses were the correct size, and this seams we should have asked that question first. The FP fuse should be no larger then 20Amp If fuse is larger then one or both of the pumps is drawing to much current

    5.0 GXi-J fuel pump relay keeps tripping

    I meant to say with motor running Red meter probe on Red/yell and black meter probe on red/purple You can replace the connector by cutting the wires and solder splice to new connector. Having issue trying to find the connector, but could always replace it with the standard square type

    5.0 GXi-J fuel pump relay keeps tripping

    The relay should no more than the temp of the air. The relay can handle more current than what's called for by the fuel pumps Place voltmeter probes between Red/purple and yell/red wires on the relay pins. You should see close to zero volts. The more resistance the higher the voltage
