    Affordable fuel injection intriguing

    Not so sure along those lines, been a few building big motors on OSO that have had good luck with Holley Sniper EDIT: Wait, holley doesn't make the ignition. You use what ever ignition you want and build the fuel tables to match what is needed

    Flag on the play This means it's not USCG certified, only that if inspected it should pass because there is nothing obvious Look into Holley, they are CG cert

    Bilge Buddy Review

    I'm sure someone could make something up to notify a phone cheap Mount a float a bit higher like high water alarm. Connect a small motorize widget that moves/spins in front of a camera. One of those camera that you would mount on front door or such Sure need wifi or cell service, but if your...

    Throttle control Neutral button missing

    The ends on the shift plate end remain the same, only the bennacle end may have changed. I would suggest calling Merc Tech support with your motor serial number and model number from the binnacle. They can advise which ones/types will work 920-929-5040

    Volvo Penta VST problems

    Exactly which model would be good to know but it's not critical. All 5.7 GSI's are TB injected and all should have 30+/-2 psi at the TB. The only part that can be different is the LP pump for the LK-WT models which can have a low pressure LP pump. Your LP pump has been replaced so it should have...

    Volvo Penta VST problems

    If the 10 psi they are talking about is for LP pump then that is good, and no issues. If that is the HP pump side at the TB, then you need to find a new Tech For your motor to run correctly the TB must have 28 to 32 psi. A Tee fitting must be installed between TB and fuel line, or remove the...

    How to get old transom ports out/replaced/fixed.

    Volvo Penta VST problems

    Maybe it's a choice of words but the float doesn't tell the low pressure pump, it simply opens and lets more fuel in. Depending on which GSI you have the LP pump can be as low as 2 psi to as high as 12 psi and still work. The pump being 9-13 is great pressure. The VST is like a carb float...
