    Engine no power under load

    Nothing has been said that the motor is missing. You can throw parts at it but that isn't going to find the real issue. Try the portable fuel tank, and you can use a 2 to 5 gal gas can and longer piece of fuel line. If gas can doesn't work then I would look at the carb

    Gear Not Engaging

    A new to you boat should always start with maintenance before you go to the water for the first time. Have you changed the gear lube? Replaced the impeller? Your issue is most likely the lower shift cable and it needs to be replaced, but could also be there is a problem with the drive and maybe...

    Engine no power under load

    The carb uses vacuum to open the secondaries. If the motor is not getting full power then the vacuum is weak. A weak vacuum will not open the secondaries

    Engine no power under load

    Then your tank vent is clogged. Normally if the tank vent is clogged it will run fine for a while, can be an hour or 2 then start bogging down. If the vent was disconnected and it runs good, and when reconnected it starts bogging almost right away there could be other issues Which is it?

    Engine no power under load

    What do you mean it worked fine after the vent line was disconnected? The antisiphon valve is connected directly to the tank. Its a barbed fitting which the rubber fuel line is connected to that goes to the fuel filter. It has a spring and check ball inside which can get clogged up and stick...

    Engine no power under load

    New pump doesn't mean it is pumping like it should. If the antisiphon valve is sticking then it will be unable to suck fuel very well out of the tank. If pickup tank tube has an issue then same problem. If the inside of a fuel line has collapsed, same issue. If the carb is clogged up...

    Mercruiser 350 mag mpi losing fuel after 30 seconds

    With it just taking 30 seconds I would suspect somethings clogged or fuel pump. Check fuel pressure at the rail Pull the fuel filter and dump contents into something clear so you can see if there is nothing but clean gas. When removing the filter note if its full of gas or a bit below full...

    Help with Caravelle 209 Volvo 5.0 PFES

    Code 12 is a self test and means the self test is ok Code 44 is ECM does not see any activity. This can be caused by a bad knock sensor, bad connection between sensor and ECM. The code will not reduce power but does sound alarm. Another is having similar and see post 27 for explaination...

    Help with Caravelle 209 Volvo 5.0 PFES

    The PEFS is good to know but the G(and letter) is more important. Serial numbers are best. Noting mentioning watching the injectors indicates TBI so probably a Gi Compression is high but that could be your gauge, good thing is they are even. Does the fuel pressure stay around 30psi as RPM is...
