    HELP, ECM Fail or something else ?

    I'll put it this way, Bob will not steer you wrong and John is one of the best at finding and fixing the faults. As for the others you mentioned, I would only go to them if Bob or John were unavailable and time was the issue

    Trim cylinder rebuild - Seized inner pin (closest to transom)

    I don't like high heat around the transom. It has a rubber seal between assy and transom. Then you have the fiberglass and Gel coat

    Trim cylinder rebuild - Seized inner pin (closest to transom)

    Big F Hammer I like ricks method. Tighten it it up and if it doesn't start sliding off, smack the end of the tool with a hammer, not a BFH, regular size. The shock most times makes it break free

    merc 115 pro xs beep codes

    Not sure that's right either. Would agree if there is a code it should be doing something else, like 2 beeps every so often just to advise there is a code. It won't reduce power unless there is something that could hurt the motor

    New to me Colbalt, Overheating only while pulling tube or ski

    This is what I mean by not enough info, and not being able to see a complete cooling system routing. The motor should have the 160 Stat, but even with the 140* your motor is getting to 180-190 (unless I missed something again). The water pump should be supplying more water thru then the motor...

    New to me Colbalt, Overheating only while pulling tube or ski

    The exhaust thermostats for both raw and closed use the same thermostats, so were good there. How does the excess water flow the the exhaust elbows and out?
