    3.0L sputtering and won't go over 2k rpms

    At the beginning of the vid the motor appears to be idling above 1000 rpm's? The pic below was a snap shot after that time, but still looked like it was above 1k rpm. In the pic below the trim looks like the drive is full up, is this correct? I would do a compression test, the engine appears...

    Engine swap, no voltage to gauges or ignition circuit

    Howdy Don't think the 13V is accurate unless you have the bat on a charger when measuring. In any case, look down by the starter for something that looks like this It will be mounted on the starter post. Inside this is a 90 amp fuse, and it might have been blown. The fuse inside looks...

    Lateral gimbal misalignment problem

    Don't know which way is up, but if its straight up in this pic, and this is looking at the transom, then the motor needs to go down and starboard side a bit lower then port. And the bearing has been damaged

    Boat Lift Question

    Guess you could give it a go to see if it works. Moving both out would give you clearance. Maybe contact the manufacture to see if they have any comment. Looks like your dry weight with full tank of gas is 3740, then add gear and you should be within limits. Don't let anyone ride up or down...

    Boat Lift Question

    I understand what you want to do but do have concerns over the weight limit of the hoist. Your not able to extend the beam out further because this will put more stress on the hard ware. the lift is designed to lift with cable s straight and if the beam is extended on each side the will put...

    Boat trailer spindle removal

    Yep, fixed one like it years ago on my car trailer. Use a ban saw (I used portable hand type) to cut it off at the weld. If yours was flush welded like mine was, the pipe will be clean. Then get another spindle which has more shoulder and drive it into the pipe and weld it up. If you get the...

    Hydrohoist tube repair

    Guy at my dock had someone use his slip while he was out and drafted more water then he does. Don't know who it was, they probably just used the slip because everything at the marina was full, or may have backed into it. Appears the boats skeg cut one of the tubes slightly, kind of a deep...

    1985 Mercruiser 140 fuel problem

    Don't know but some pics of that model show an access panel in the floor. The filter is part of the fuel pump and not in the tank (click on links above in other post). There would be an antisiphon valve on the tank that the rubber fuel line is connected to. The valve is a ball and spring inside...

    Howdy Yes there is a kill switch and in most cases its part of the throttle control near the bottom or close by. In the pic below note the purple wire goes to the throttle handle and there is the kill switch in lower left of the handle. Check for 12V on the purple wire, and if you have it...
