    2003 mercruiser 4.3 efi throttle body injected alarm and engine shutdown at idle/neutral

    The interrupter causes the motor to misfire and slow the rpms. If it gets stuck it kills the motor. If your oil pressure is barely above minimum (around 6 psi) then it could cause it to go off

    Leaking Shore Power Cable

    2003 mercruiser 4.3 efi throttle body injected alarm and engine shutdown at idle/neutral

    One solution for adding a ski pylon

    Nice job on the install Assuming the top plate is 1/4 steel plate If you have any issue with cracking it will be the bolt holes.The straight back pulling it should do fine, but the lateral pulling is where mainly the bolt holes are holding the load. I would think about using a 3/4 piece of...

    1997 Bluewater cracks in gelcoat

    Its probably from a combination of heat and flex of the hull. The entry level boats like yours and my Rinker are not made as well as ones like, Cobalt, Formula The wake tower puts some add stress and might need to be reinforced if cracks get worst

    Running without Reverse Gate..?

    Have to agree, none to be found You know what it looks like and what it does. Maybe find a welding shop that can make something to work out of aluminum. Even a flat plate going in front of the nozzle would help. They use to make jet ski's with no reverse. You shut them off and drift into the...

    99 Volvo Penta 5.0 GL Heating Issue

    It would be best to verify that it is overheating, but doubt its the gauge. Your motor has a temp sender which sends signals to the gauge for visual reference. The other is a temp switch the sounds the alarm. The switch and the gauge are not connected together. So the gauge reads its hot...
