    Volvo Penta 3.0 GLP Stalling when reducing from high RPM.

    Your idling high (about 1000) and needs to bring RPM's down slowly or it will stall. In most cases its the carb, but only if everything else is set correctly and no other issues. Put a vacuum gauge on the intake and see if its low. If low it may have a intake leak. Then checking timing, if...

    Merc 8.2l guardian seawater pressure fault code 328

    No, the poppet valves regulate the amount of raw water used for cooling. If they stick open then the Mans stay cooler then needed or other things. Don't know if your open or closed cooling but here is open cooling. Its for SBC but similar to BBC

    Merc 8.2l guardian seawater pressure fault code 328

    Not sure what pressure you should be reading but 5 to 6 psi at cruise would seam low to me. I have non-Cat 8.2 MPI and installed a mechanical pressure gauge on the Block, which I get 20 some psi at cruise and around 3 to 5 at idle. You may have an issue with the poppet valves bleeding off to...

    Windlass and modifying the forward bulkhead

    Unable to say but do believe if there was an issue with the hull, the manufacture may void the warranty. That said unless your modification would have to have related to the issue Don't know if the pipe would work but if its for the most part straight down it may work. Keep in mind it would...

    2010 Chaparral 216 SSI Bilge Pump

    Bilge pumps have to be under the motor, just the way it is. If unable to get to it you can mount pump on a piece of flat stock aluminum, or something else. Pump is mounted and slid under motor, then aluminum is secured in another location which has more access

    VP 5.7 Gi-J three or 4 sparks only

    Don't know which ECM is in a GI-J but a motor serial number might help Unable to answer seeing only 4 instead of 8 spikes, but the motor was running and now it isn't so don't see it as a reluctor wheel issue. Have you scanned the motor for codes?

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    Lets say I didn't understand fully about the 10* or 1/16. If your saying you need to move the rotor about that much past prior to dropping it in so the Rotor will align correctly", then Yes it should be done. I'm saying after the Dizzy is installed it needs to align with the point or the 8

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    The motor may have been rebuilt once before and a 383 (6.2) rotating assembly may have been installed prior. Not saying it was, just a possibility Normally it is not done, but can be moved ever so little, a degree or 2 can change things. There is a Merc Bulletin which shows how to build a $10...
