    Transom leak near exhaust

    What I think you have is a soft transom. Once the transom gets soft it has to be replaced. If it's not the transom it could be the exhaust Y pipe but the motor needs to be pulled to get in close enough to inspect. Might get a bore scope phone attachment so you can get in closer, but still...

    Inboard/ I/O Engine Hoist Ideas?

    If you find an old cable wrecker, can attach or make a Jen pole and do it that way. Other wise a Backhoe and chain host makes it safe and semi easy

    Thanks for updated SN, good thing it's still in same model area The warning horn switch under the Dizzy has nothing to do with the fuel pump, it only sounds the alarm The one down by the remote filter connect does active the FP and has nothing to do with the alarm

    Changing my boat gauges.

    Going to be hard for us online to know what's wrong. Do you have a volt meter, and if so check power and connections.

    Continuous alarm and 30 second shutdown (plus)

    Not really but to clarify Your correct that oil pressure, water temp and drive lube will sound the alarm The TKS module also had a Temp switch but was not part of the alarm, it just kept power to the TKS module once it warmed up. TKS has been disabled so the disconnected orange wire is not an...

    Gauge Identification / Testing / Replacement

    Contact Nauticstar manufacture directly. Most companies can find what was used by the hull number https://nauticstarboats.com/ Otherwise look at places like VDO, Autometer and Faira for gauges that will work. Note the diameter size of the gauges then maybe find a quad gauge for oil pressure...

    Continuous alarm and 30 second shutdown (plus)

    The over Temp switch is on the thermostat housing. This switch will have 2 wires and unplug it to see if buzzer stops. Most the alarm signals go thru the TB-V ignition module. The orange wire came from the TKS Temp switch that is no longer used

    1996 Four Winns Sundowner with 5.0 Cobra engine and drive

    No, I said it has to come from a Truck not a car. A truck has a different cam then a car. A boat also has brass of stainless freeze plugs, and auto can have aluminum. The head gasket is also stainless so not to rust. Now if this is a closed cool motor then not having a marine head gasket or...
