    Merc 4.3 in a 2006 Maxum SR3 1800. Will crank, won’t start. Seems to be fuel system related…

    Thanks, TBV Dizzy and TKS carb If the pump runs for even a short time, the carb bowl gets filled and will run for a while until the bowl empties. If pump is not running then look at the starter to fuel pump connection, purple/Yellow wire.

    Trim gauge creeping higher

    Ya know, this should have been your own thread instead of using H20Rat's I'll say in closing, the up function is controlled by the trim limit. The limit is most likely gone bad and is not making a connection. The limit will need to be replaced, or it can be bypassed by connecting the Pur/Wht...

    Digital Throttle/Shift (DTS) Shift Adjustment ???
