    Chrysler 130

    Keep look for another motor or block to replace my 105. Frank told me I could use a 105 (original) 120 or Force 120 and change my cowling so long as it was before 1994. Found a boat and motor on CL but guy says compression is 132 across the board (skeptical) and its a mid 80's motor. I didn't...

    Pintle Hitch

    Over the years I have accumulated all kinds of hitch balls (pun intended). Have the straight 3-way, a couple 2 5/16, variations of 2 inch drops and picked up a pintle hitch some years back when needing a 10 ton Tag trailer. Was out today moving the Tag trailer and an empty cruiser trailer to...

    Volvo AD41P RPM Issue

    Not saying your wrong, but in all fairness, the only place I've ever seen CAC has been with VP. Been on the Heavy Equipment Forum for as long as here and never seen it, all call them inner coolers. Most cases for low rpm in these motors is clogged exhaust, turbo or fuel pressure. Running...

    2005 Mercruiser 5.0 liter mpi with dual cooling Where is the Lifting eye ?

    Agree with this unless you have the thermostat housing ring hook installed, if its there use it. Loosen the top nut on the engine mount. Pick the front of the motor up until it is just off the front mounts. Adjust the lower nut until it makes full contact. Now lower weight off of motor...

    Quicksilver 3000 Controls Replacement

    Yes, the limit switch is located on the drive. So if its connected to the trim switch, pressing the trim buttons will not allow the drive to go up all the way. If the limit switch is not there, or if it is bypassed the limit buttons will fully raise or fully lower the drive. It can be...

    Loose engine mount found !

    Muc is correct, I pay more attention to the lock nut on top. The listing only calls it a nut but it is a nylock nut http://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/31770/1939/250

    8.1 Crusader winterizing ??

    What most do, is take a piece of aluminum, cut the shape out, then drill and tap a hole for the air fitting, then use a piece or rubber as a seal. It could be made from ply wood, but would need some kind of metal strap to go over it to screw down in place Some use things like sea flush for...

    NO The jumper cables are being used to add additional grounds only from engine block to the battery, don't use them any place else. The slave terminals are the ones on top. One side is hot 12V and the other goes to the starter solenoid. When jumped across it should crank the motor without...
