    Axius repair on used boat Cobalt 303

    Yes, this looks like what’s in the PCM 555 manual. For a full wiring diagram on this engine and its interface with Axius you will need a wiring diagram binder that MerCruiser sells. It is a very nice book, large pages that are laminated and full color. your mechanic should have access to it.

    Axius repair on used boat Cobalt 303

    This information comes from a dealer tech website. I only know how it works in the U.S. but I thought any tech registered with Mercury Marine can access it. They call it "MercNET"

    Axius repair on used boat Cobalt 303

    I took a quick look, this boat has a history of issues and a lot of service bulletins. Is your mechanic aware of all this history? It looks like "white glove" might not have been completed? And that S.B. has been revised 2 times since the last record of service. Did your mechanic change the city...

    Volvo Penta 280 Drive Shaft Nut Clearance

    I worked for 4 different Volvo dealers here in Minnesota. Only one of them stocked all these shims. They are long gone. 2 are still in business. Have you tried the dealer locator on Volvo’s website?

    Volvo Penta 280 Drive Shaft Nut Clearance

    What a long strange trip it’s been. Sorry but that seems to fit here. I have to believe the dealer just had some mismarked shims and you will be able to get the right ones. If you can’t If the bearing you’re shimming has been spun under load at least once—go loose. If it’s a brand new...

    Leak from water distribution housing

    Don’t know about a premade kit. But it can be done in the water once you break the vacuum by removing the blue plug on the thermostat housing.

    Sorry the first dealer steered you wrong. Unfortunately these newer engines can require trained technicians to diagnose them.

    Volvo Penta 2015 codes 697, 698, 699

    Thanks for the S/N. You have a V8-270-C-B it was built in 2012 or 2013 but was put into service in 2015. The page you posted in the screen shot isn't for your engine. STOP using this diagnostic manual and get a copy of EGC diagnostics part number 7749393. This is why a serial number can be soo...

    Volvo Penta 2015 codes 697, 698, 699

    i hope I didn’t post that. If I did I was wrong. Those codes can only be ignored with can bus gauges. If you have analog gauges and also have those codes……….. the gauges won’t be working. But that only depends on certain serial numbers. If you read the page that you posted it talks about the...

    2019 Volvo V8 380 C-M won't start unless i give it throttle

    Yes that’s an exhaust manifold water temperature sensor. And no it couldn’t cause the issue you’re having. I don’t know why it wasn’t seated. It screws into a blind hole so no water would leak and I don’t think it would affect the operation of the sensor. The problem with inspecting a wiring...

    2019 Volvo V8 380 C-M won't start unless i give it throttle

    Thanks for the IVS recording -- much easier to watch -- thought I might have seen something in the first scan you posted. IVS looks good. But when I took a second look at the first scan, I noticed that the engine wasn't up to operating temp. That can change many things. Might want to rerun the...

    Volvo Penta 2015 codes 697, 698, 699

    Welcome to iBoats! Volvo made many different engines in 2015 and just because the boat is a 2015 doesn't mean the engine is. The engine serial number is the best way to determine what engine you have and what those codes mean. What tool are you using to to read these codes?

    Volvo Penta 280 Drive Shaft Nut Clearance

    .001" isn't much ------ but we have a saying in all the drive schools I have attended. "better lose than tight" I would recommend you keep at it. Some drives take more time them others, but getting it right is possible.
