    4.3 GL starving for fuel

    When you start the motor and its running listen for the fuel pump, is it running? Take a voltmeter and check for power at the pump? If it is running and you have power to the pump, then need to check fuel pressure at the carb. To check pressure you will need a vacuum fuel pump tester or borrow...

    ghost in the machine ?

    A boat uses 180 (empty) to 33 (full) ohm scale. Many cars use different if not opposite scale. So it would show empty if grounded. This is how the gauge/sender should be wired. You should have 12V on the purple wire when the key is ON

    New engine won’t start

    Think you blew the 90 amp fuse Looks like the pic and is attached to the starter post. The fuse is designed to protect the ALT but most times the Red/Purple is also atted to it which feeds the 50 amp breaker and everything else. If the fuse is blown, suggest attaching only the Orange ALT wire...

    Grew Limited St170

    Howdy In most cases it sometimes is best to rip it all out and start over, but in any case, wiring is generic. Get the motor wiring all cleaned up, then decide which is best for you and your budget. Its best to run new Positive and Negative wires to feed anything that the motor does not need...

    1998 Larson 233 escape (fuel issue)

    You have 2 diodes (item 16), check them to see if they are connected and working. A diode will pass current in one direction but not another. If you have a diode scale on your meter shift to it to test.

    Electrical issues - power where it shouldnt be...I think

    The starter solenoid needs more current to engage, and while the key alone can energize the solenoid, it uses much less current using another relay up close. The key energizes the slave relay, then it does the starter solenoid No, they should have no voltage if the key is not ON You will...

    Electrical issues - power where it shouldnt be...I think

    You do have a mess and from what I'm reading your going to need to ring out the harness. These should give you the basics for something with Thunderbolt ignition. If your ignition is different let us know

    Wiring digital VSR

    Just for clarity, this is a battery switch and not an isolator? If its a bat switch then do install like this (ACR and VSR install is the same)

    Steering linkage help

    I don't see any adjustment, this should be spring loaded and since the hole is not up inside with the slot. Think you need new cables
