    Mercrusier 5.0 MPI (2008) RPM stops @ 3200.

    Have a motor serial number? Does the alarm work on the boat? Meaning do you get any beeps when the key is turned ON? If you do, check your fuel pressure at the rail

    Engine starts and dies.

    VP 5.0Gxi w/ SX-A on 2006 Four Winns H210 shakes when trimmed up

    Don't see the trim pump making the drive shake. Its just a hydraulic pump. With it on the trailer, put muffs on and run it in gear and watch as its trimmed up and down. If nothing is seen, I would take the drive off

    The procedure above is also how the rockers should be tightened to spec. Manual states if not done this way it can bend push rods

    Engine cut out while slowing down....

    Agree Did you check clearance of the collapsed lifters? Basically the lifter is fully collapsed and tool is used to see if there is still room to insert the gauge. If its unable to insert then a different length of rod is needed
