    High or low should not matter, what does matter is the amount of pressure the pump puts out

    Bell housing to outdrive gasket protruding

    OK no RTV, yet the bead came out. It should not have happened, there 2 flat surfaces. The red bead is what helps it stay in place. Guess I've been lucky, but never had one slide out

    Starter wiring please help

    There is a Yellow/Red wire from the key switch to the relay on the motor. When the key is turned to start the relay energizes which then supplys power to the starter thru another Yel/Red wire Since it worked before, I would guess one of the connections is bad between the starter and relay.

    Merc 5.7 Carb Help

    electric fuel pump problems

    Don't know which one is which, but the MPR has to energize to supply power to others. It should be like this, but note this is for a Mercruiser but it should be the same just maybe different pins numbers

    electric fuel pump problems

    The MPR should have 12V on one side full time. If it does not, then its a fuse, a bad connection or broken wire. The relays can be swapped with each other

    2008 Tahoe Q4 3.0 Mercrusier

    Flipping it ON doesn't mean its passing voltage Power comes from the key to the purple wire. The purple wire goes to the kill switch then to the gauges and the motor. If the switch or the wire breaks connection, the gauges do not turn ON nor does the motor Use a voltmeter and see if you have...

    Bravo 3 Shift Adjustment . . .

    Just noticed this. The system doesn't provide old thread notifications via email, only newer ones In any case, looking a both Bravo manuals, they both say the same thing. So I would say, your gears may be frozen up

    Starter wiring please help

    OK Yel/Red on inside post Purple on outside post Yel/red comes from start assist relay to crank over the motor Purple supplies power to the fuel pump while cranking and before motor starts Wire as before and find out why the yel/red wire is not being powered up when the key is turned to start.

    Don't fully get the drawing, but would agree the best fix would be replace all and there should be no issue

    Battery Banks

    While not the best, adding AM to a lead acid bat charger is not all that bad. Doing it the other way would be worst LA = 12.7V AGM = 12.8V
