    Buying a 210s limited

    Not an OB guy, but have heard they are good motors Not a price snob, but it is where you start. Bought a 1995 Rinker new and had it for 27 years, just sold this year. It was a very good running boat. Issues where trim, electrical connections, and general hardware. Rinker is also a entry...

    Mercruiser 3.0 MPI ETC, Oil pressure sender issue? I can't find it.

    Need to fix the kink in the fuel line. Might see if it can be turned another 270* so it points side ways and straight out. This will provide enough room to keep the kink from happening. On the same subject, the fuel line is fairly skinny and doesn't look like USCG type A1. See if you can...

    Trim will go down not up IO Volvo Penta

    Will it go up if the trailer button is pressed? If not, look for the Blue/White wire on the relays. Need 12V on the Blu/Wht wires when up is pressed. Can swap the relays to see if the problem moves to down If it does go up with trailer button, then its the limit switch on the drive

    Trim and tilt problems on 5.0L

    Most likely the piston seal inside the cylinder is leaking slightly. Replace the internal seal and it will be fine. Don't know about the noise, but check for something binding, U joints need grease (but if they were dry there should be vibrations)

    2005 Rinker Captiva 192 - should I stay away

    Unless you need body parts there is no reason to stay away from any boat. The motor is still made and that's what counts.

    454 MAG Hard Start When Warm

    That would cause it to use more fuel due to keeping the fuel pressure at max even at idle. The port on the Plenum has a very small hole in it. So it should not effect starting when warm so much Start motor and place in base timing mode. To do this need to put the jumper between pins A and B...
