    wiring

    Doubt anyone can advise what might have caused it without seeing and putting hands on the wiring. The wiring burnt and most likely the insulation on the wires was a chafed and shorted. It didn't damage the motor computer (2017 assuming new motor)

    2000 MERCRUISER TBI 5.7 injectors quit at idle

    I'm also unable to verify what the injectors are or should be. My guess is the PO changed them out for some on ebay so there is no telling where they came from, or what they were used on Injectors that should be there are Merc 852956A1 or Mallory 9-33106 I would send them out for flow...

    Idle Issue - Carb or Fuel Problem??

    With a carb you can pick up a Tee fitting and carb rubber hose fitting at the local auto parts store. Get some fuel line and clamps and make up your own. Use a vacuum/fuel pump tester which can be rented from the auto store. Connect the steel line to the Tee with short piece of fuel line...

    Idle Issue - Carb or Fuel Problem??

    Is the throttle cable adjusted so it applies a slight bit of pressure holding carb closed at idle? When its running, do you see any drips down the throat of the carb?

    2003 4.3 MPI Mercruiser Problem

    Back to your original question, there probably is a blown gasket between 1 and 3. As it heats up it gets worst

    Roller bunk Adjustment advise ...

    Yes away from the keel. The rollers on the strikes is not going to damage anything. The way the hull is made, it appears it might be on one. Also note that when the hull gets ready to load, sometimes the bow keel area goes lower until the hull flatens out on the rollers. Just something to...

    Mag 350 5.7 Still overheating

    Things give you a constant alarm, over heat, low oil pressure and drive lube low, over speed and sea water pressure low. Over speed happens when the motor thinks its in neutral and rpms exceed 2500. The in-gear switch is on the shift plate The most common problem is the sea water pressure...

    Mag 350 5.7 Still overheating

    Thanks for the SN If the alarm goes off but its not overheating, then its the sensor. The sensor is on the thermostat housing, and the other side is the temp sender for the helm gauge. It doesn't know how hot the mans or risers are

    2000 MERCRUISER TBI 5.7 injectors quit at idle

    With the Diacom showing 700 hours, someone has replaced the motor, the ECM or both. Could even be the hour meter was replaced or left unplugged for a long time. In any case someone has been messing with the motor. Would be worth a compression test to see how it turns out. TB held WOT when...

    Idle Issue - Carb or Fuel Problem??

    As GA said, run it off a gas can. I'm thinking the carb needs a rebuild and would also check fuel pressure. Pressure should be 3-7 psi

    2000 MERCRUISER TBI 5.7 injectors quit at idle

    Once the voltage comes up on the ALT it should stay up. Could be your bat has a bad cell Your pic is hard to read because of the glare Rich mix is controlled by the MAP and Temp. The injectors may need to be tested, might be leaking fuel. Many have bought injectors from ebay and regretted...

    Concrete finish ideas

    Ground the edge off ad used pavers at a slant so it wouldn't pose a trip hazard. Just ticks me off to get sloppy work.

    2000 MERCRUISER TBI 5.7 injectors quit at idle

    The 5V output is critical to the ECM and sensors. The 5V comes from the ECM and with it being high, either your meter needs checked or the ECM needs repair. Check with another meter to verify Your ALT needs to be repaired if the meter is accurate

    Roller bunk Adjustment advise ...

    Think outward just a tad so long as the keel has clearance. Might only take 1/2 inch. The starboard side appears next to nothing is touching. Is this the case and if so what is holding the boat?

    2000 MERCRUISER TBI 5.7 injectors quit at idle

    Looks like a voltage supply issue Your battery voltage should be closer to 14V. Seeing 11.9V is close to a dead battery. Check output of the alternator once it revs to 1500 one time. Don't keep it there, just needs a quick bump Check 5V reading at at the gray wire of the MAP, or CPS The...
