    IAC Valve Silencer hose

    Welcome Not a Suz expert but the hose is routed away so you won't hear the air suction. When motor is idling air is drawn in thru the open hose to the IAC silencer. From silencer to the IAC and then into the intake. The silencer is like a foam air filter, it lessons the sound of sucking air...

    Mercruiser 4.3L won't start

    Not able to find that serial number, thinking it's maybe a 1985 model or there about, MCM 205, points distributor If the boat has a Tach, remove the wire from it. Could be the negative side of the coil might have 2 gray wires (one for Tach and one for distributor)

    Mercruiser 4.3L won't start

    The distributor doesn't look factory, what brand is it? What is the motor serial number? Does the finger mean the rotor? Explain can't attach distributor? No, not normal See if you have 12V on the purple wire with the key ON

    60 HP Mercury 4 stroke cuts off when warms up.

    Thanks Looks like your motor uses a vapor separation tank VST Not real familiar with your motor but find the VST and look for a schrader valve (bicycle tire fitting) which will have a plastic cap on it. Find/rent a fuel pressure gauge and attach to it. Then run the motor and watch the pressure...

    2006 Monterey Boat with a 4.3L Mercruiser TKS Engine S/N 0w354897 Mysterious Loss of Power

    I said Temp switch is connected directly to ignition power and if it starts shorting out it normally blows the fuse. If it just draws enough power to low the 12V supply below 10V and not blow the fuse this can cause spark issues Again need to test
