    Indmar 5.7 TBI transplant into 88 SeaRay - Shift Interrupt & Base Ignition Timing

    Sorry, been gone for a bit. Being you have a MEFI-1 ECM you don't want to do what I mentioned in a previous post. The schematic shows the Merc 5.7 wiring which is close to what you have but may not be exact. Look for the Merc style DLC connector If you have this connector then a pin between...
