    New bearings: too much movement on spindle

    I looked back at your previous post. Did you end up replacing the spindle for this one that you are having problems with?

    New bearings: too much movement on spindle

    My suggestion....post pictures of everything. Include showing what the inner bearing looks like sitting in the cup(race).

    New bearings: too much movement on spindle

    If you didn't get the race pushed all the way in, you would have the opposite problem.

    I never understand why you don't just go for the touchdown. Chucky is an idiot.

    Find a tapered rubber plug and plug that hole the next time you run on muffs

    270 leg water pickup

    Those drives have a hole near the bottom front of the drive that you need to plug before running on muffs. You likely had water coming out of it when you turned on the water. Be prepared to replace your water pump impeller now.

    Adding dash voltage gauge for trolling motor batteries.

    There is no current flowing in the circuit. You will not have any voltage drops from resistance. You can have tons of resistance and it won't matter. We would often have voltage monitoring ports on circuits through 10K resistors!!

    Oil change could be easier...

    Just but a short piece of hose that has a female and male ends on it and then attach that to your pump. Or just make a piece of hose and put your own ends on it. I use this style. It has a short piece of garden type hose that I can screw onto the dipstick...

    Mercruiser 6.2L MPI overheating

    Because then the speed of the boat forces the water up the inlet hose. Not even an issue once the boat is on plane. I have two friends that had Cobra leaks at the shaft that drives the water pump impeller. It happens. Volvo decided to abandon that idea for a reason. There were people on here...

    Mercruiser 6.2L MPI overheating

    The water pump in both the Mercruiser Bravo Drive and the Volvo drives are below the water line. There is NO pumping UP to either of the input of those pumps. There is a reason Volvo eliminated the impeller on the drive like the Cobra had when Volvo did the joint venture. It's a poor design...

    How too test if PU coil is weak ?

    First off...since when does a 4.3l have coil packs? You mean the coil itself? Replace the distributor cap and rotor. Do not try to clean. What do the plugs look like? A coil can get damaged when the spark has no where to go. That means distributor, rotor, wires and plugs can cause a coil to be...

    Engine won’t turn over

    And...you don't need to pull the whole drive...just the upper drive housing.

    Oil change could be easier...

    Agree...why would anyone put a smaller diameter hose down the tube when it has the garden hose fitting and a larger diameter tube? I can dump the 8 qts from the pan in my 7.4l in hardly any time at all with the garden hose adapter and my power pump.

    Rocker Switch Panel

    The switches all get a ground to allow the switch to light. The output of the switch is what goes to the positive side of the light. If the rocker switches that are turned off, have their indicator lights turn on, that's a sneak path to ground through the light.

    Rocker Switch Panel

    My bet is you have one or more bad grounds and you are picking up a sneak path ground through some of the indicator lights.
