    Windlass and modifying the forward bulkhead

    Unable to say but do believe if there was an issue with the hull, the manufacture may void the warranty. That said unless your modification would have to have related to the issue Don't know if the pipe would work but if its for the most part straight down it may work. Keep in mind it would...

    2010 Chaparral 216 SSI Bilge Pump

    Bilge pumps have to be under the motor, just the way it is. If unable to get to it you can mount pump on a piece of flat stock aluminum, or something else. Pump is mounted and slid under motor, then aluminum is secured in another location which has more access

    VP 5.7 Gi-J three or 4 sparks only

    Don't know which ECM is in a GI-J but a motor serial number might help Unable to answer seeing only 4 instead of 8 spikes, but the motor was running and now it isn't so don't see it as a reluctor wheel issue. Have you scanned the motor for codes?

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    Lets say I didn't understand fully about the 10* or 1/16. If your saying you need to move the rotor about that much past prior to dropping it in so the Rotor will align correctly", then Yes it should be done. I'm saying after the Dizzy is installed it needs to align with the point or the 8

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    The motor may have been rebuilt once before and a 383 (6.2) rotating assembly may have been installed prior. Not saying it was, just a possibility Normally it is not done, but can be moved ever so little, a degree or 2 can change things. There is a Merc Bulletin which shows how to build a $10...

    Volvo Penta MD7A Thermostat Housing Leak

    ok, not tight, then I do understand your concern No first hand knowledge, but there are higher pressure fuel lines that just use a O ring and a pin to keep in in. With just a little play and not being able to move it back far enough for it to disconnect, will figure its was designed that way...

    Volvo Penta MD7A Thermostat Housing Leak

    The bushing is a seal and is designed to be tightened securely by just the thermostat housing being torqued to spec. The copper pipe is soft and would not be able to take very much tension. If it does leak it would most likely come from the rusting of the housing. Try to sand the area smooth...

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    Dead injector?

    The injectors have replaceable screens and they start to rust from the ethanol gas. I would have them cleaned and flow tested
