    2008 moomba shaft

    Someone at the factory or dealer didn't align the shaft to trans coupling correctly. It should be adjusted to 0.003 or less. My guess its probably closer to 0.010 The cutlass bearing will wear out over time if not fixed

    Mercruiser connector confusion

    What I'm seeing is a Red/Purple (comes from 50 Amp fuse), and Orange (comes from Alternator) are the 10 AWG. So your wiring should not connect both Orange and Red/Purple together Your CC is old enough to have a Amp meter and not a voltmeter. The Amp meter requires power to go up and back thru...

    1994 Astro S-18FS (won't start)

    No that's the neutral safety switch and it's not your problem Sounds like you may not have a kill switch. The kill switch gets a tether (lanyard) attached to it and other end is attached to the driver. If the drive falls overboard it pulls cord and kills the motor
