    98 sea ray 185, 4.3 bravo 1 steering problem

    Always need as much info on the issue so folks can help determine the cause. If pump was replaced because of the issue, then it may be the steering ram. The ram tube has a slot which must be straight up and down. If it is in position then its the ram because the pump has been replaced

    OMC Chevy 5.7 just cuts out.

    If the tachometer shorts out it kills power to the coil. Could be key switch or kill switch or just a bad connection

    350 mag mpi 2011, low fuel pressure

    With a boost pump on starboard side then you have a Gen 2 with a boost pump. Your reg is on the port side. The Gen 3 looks like this and there is 2 pumps inside the unit My guess is its the Reg but testing will verify. This is your motor, (without SN not real sure)...

    350 mag mpi 2011, low fuel pressure

    Would be good to have the serial number but being a 555 ECM it should be 43 psi. Does the motor have the Gen 2 (single pump port side) or Gen 3 cool fuel (pump box starboard side)? If Gen 2, remove the regulator and need a air compressor with adjustable air regulator, gauge and rubber tip...

    Bravo 3 overheating - oil expansion

    I would drain the lube and if it looked just like it went in (no darker, green and all that) I would replace the bottle. Its $50 bucks but the drive cost more. If you have a buddy with a Merc lube bottle, exchange caps with him/her

    Looks real nice. Have read that the PVC decking is best placed on 12 inch centers, but that was years ago.
