No
When thermostat is closed water doesn't flow into the block but flows directly out the exhaust. When thermostat opens water flows into block and water in block flows out the exhaust.
Water in = same amount of water out
You either have a clog, inlet water tube is not positioned correctly, or impeller is not pumping. Remove the hose going to the thermostat housing from the drive and see if water comes out when motor is started
Only other thing is to go back to electrical, but you said no fuel at the carb
Can measure voltage at the positive side of the coil to see if it drops out but that has no bearing on the fuel supply
Only other thing is if the fuel tank is empty, as in a leak or someone stole it, but would smell...
Ok it doesn't run on the main tank but does on a gas can
If that is correct then its the valves, collapsed fuel line of tank pickup is clogged, and its on both tanks.
Having fuel in the vacuum line could mean the cool fuel or the rail regulator could be leaking.
I would remove the one on the rail because it would be easier to get to and test
With 2 tanks, and each tank feeding 1 motor, and both engines die within a few seconds of each other this would normally be an electrical problem. You did mention (as I understand) your unable to draw fuel from the tank?
Agree, the odds would be great to have both antisiphon valves go bad at...
Would be similar method as the Merc
Use a dial indicator type torque wrench and rotate until correct torque is obtained.
Not sure about the DP-SM but finding 9-14 in lb for the SX and DPS
My manual does show it done the same way
I hope the muffs are attached and water is turned ON before the motor was started
Sounds are difficult in writing forum, but the clicking might be from exhaust flappers/shutters. If they are the older metal style they can cause this.
With little water exiting the prop hub or exhaust reliefs...
The reason I like that link so much is because you could see if someone got an answer fairly quick. If the OP post again to his own thread it no longer shows up in unanswered nor anywhere else which would be easy to find.
So you have a outboard primmer bulb on a inboard motor?
If so that's bad news
Have a glass inline filter before the carb, more bad news
You traced back to the separator filter, but tracing the line going from the tank to the separator, there is nothing but fuel line and not another filter...
This winter I'm replacing the decks on on the rental with concrete. Currently have painted 4x4's for the porch's and wanting to replace with something more maintenance free. They make wraps and full load bearing. Don't want to spend a fortune either.
Anyone do similar?
Can you explain this a bit more?
Can get fuel to the pump from a handheld?
Can from the inline filter to the carb but nothing from either tank?
Some of these boats have 2 filters and one is down low in the bilge forward of the motor. Have you followed the fuel line back to the tank?
No that doesn't do the same, it list the newest post, posted, not newest threads
Also looks like I need to figure where the quote button is, if there is one. Thried reply and that didn't work
The New Topic button is not there like the old.
It was my go-to button to see any new threads started. Could scan thru them to see if someone posted and had no response.
