    Replace or Repair, where to start?

    If its not pumping water because the impeller vanes have broken off. With no vanes the block empties of water and the exhaust gases fill those areas so everything gets hot. Being a 84 (and your pic) it should have a MR Alpha drive. I would replace the entire pump assembly with a kit...

    So long as the boat stays on the trailer it doesn't need anodes

    2011 New 3.0 MFI with no spark mystery

    Being a 3.0 it would have the Delco EST distributor and how it works is pretty simple. Having swapped the distributor with the other motor and no spark I'm scratching my head like you are. The EST is all self contained and the port works. Move the port dizzy, coil and dizzy harness and it...

    1996 Boston Whaler Rage 15 motor swap

    Unable to say for sure, but just like switching from a stern drive OMC to Merc, it's doable, just need to made do a little fiber glass work. That's only IF needed and glass work isn't that hard

    Unable to say for sure with your boat, but in all cases I've seen, there are a small amount of rivets under the rail. The cap is lapped over the bottom so it shouldn't pop off it there were none

    Drilling gunwales for flush mount rod holders?

    Drilling 3 to 4 holes on each side will take some structure out, just unable to say what effect. Might depend on how thick the top is. A boat takes a lot of vibration and if it stays sound, there could be some cracks form around the new holes

    RPM's surging, think I fixed the problem

    The caps are known to cause trouble even when they look new. I think your plugs would have been fine after a bit of running on the new cap. In your other thread you said tank had only about 1/8 and you added fresh gas to it. Note: checking gap is good, but don't try to regap unless no other...

    Thunderbolt IV spark loss

    Sure sounds like you have accomplished the testing procedure correct. If there are no bad connections, and 12V stays on the Red/White wire and coil + terminal when the spark doesn't happen, then I would lean toward the Ignition Module. The module is electronic and normally wouldn't work and...

    Hydrolock, swim platform, riser height and static water line question

    Suggest removing the pic of the box in post 61 because it has your address on it. It also show the address of the seller and if you look it up, its just a house in a residential area. Guess he might buy out parts and sell later or something like that My guess is the elbows where never...
