    I understand pump does not run when plugged in, but it does "run" when you jump it, Right??? So jump it and let it run for 30 seconds. Reconnect correctly to the motor and see if it will now start?

    2007 Merc 5.0 TKS stalled at speed, had to be towed

    The fuel pump is electric and should run when motor is cranking, and continue to run when motor has started. Below is a block diagram showing how the system works. The purple/yellow wire is what supplies power to the fuel pump. Remove the fuel filter to see if it's full of fuel and pour gas...

    If the fuel pump is able to pump fuel, it takes maybe 30 seconds for the fuel pump to fill the carb. Once carb is filled the motor will start and run even if the fuel pump stops running for a several minutes at idle. Your not getting fuel to the carb, so remove the fuel filter to see if it's...

    ok, then carb is clogged up, fuel pump runs but does not pump, the antisiphon valve is keeping pump from sucking fuel from the tank, or fuel filter is clogged When carb is pumped does fuel squirt from carb? If no fuel, remove fuel filter (should be full) and dump contents into clear container...

    2004 Volvo Penta 5.0L OSi engines w/ duo props not getting on plane

    Check fuel pressure, should be 50-60 psi on high side If one motor was having problems the good one would not be able to produce enough power to get on plane. If one was ok and other had issues making power I would assume there would be a difference in rpm even slightly Does each motor get...

    Constant high pitch alarm?

    Not an OB guy but an alarm is going off non-stop but sensors are unplugged, how does that happen? If its not overheating then it may just be an issue with the alarm and not the motor. Do find out if it is doing something to cause an alarm

    2004 Volvo Penta 5.0L OSi engines w/ duo props not getting on plane

    Is there any difference in RPM between motors when trying to get on plane? One chip will not cause what your seeing The fuel is old and seafoam is crap IMO and cannot make bad gas into good gas. If the gas is bad, there is no fixing, it has to be used up and new added or you just have more...

    Engine Temp

    So far not sounding like an issue at all. The thermostat will not open until its at least 140* and your saying it stays 150-160. The hem gauges are not normally real accurate and can vary +/- at least 10*
