    Still no power

    I said they did use them but I didn't say they used them on your motor. All it takes is removing the timing chain cover to verify

    1987 MIE 454 oil pump intermediate shaft?

    Metal or plastic should be able to do it. You will know if it doesn't go all the way in, because the Dizzy won't go all the way down. The plastic one will require it to be pushed down until there is something like a snap in

    1987 MIE 454 oil pump intermediate shaft?

    While it might be metal, I'm currently rebuilding a Gen VI 454 and the one removed is a white thermo plastic. It rides against a place so its like a bearing/bushing

    1987 MIE 454 oil pump intermediate shaft?

    Yes it can be put back in without removing the motor. The issue is alingning the slot and tab inside the plastic retainer (item 4) https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/31663/1948/210

    2002 Volvo penta Gxi 5.0 beeping issue

    BTW it maybe able to done away with. Code 44 was only used on MEFI 2 and 3 models. Since then they found it does more harm then good. It can be turned off but need tuning software to do it. The caveat is that the ECM program cannot be locked and most are not. Need something like MEFI Burn...

    2002 Volvo penta Gxi 5.0 beeping issue

    Normally it happens real fast, but sounds like its intermittent. It works then it doesn't. Could be a bad connection on the sensor. It has a plastic clip that snaps on top of it. Some times the top gets corroded https://www.amazon.com/Sensor-Switch-Mercruiser-806612T-Mercury/dp/B01MXW22I6

    2002 Volvo penta Gxi 5.0 beeping issue

    The ECM checks to see if the knock sensor is work when the motor is first throttled up after restart. The ECM advances spark to far for milliseconds to see if it can detect a knock. If it does, timing goes back to normal and all good. If it cannot make it knock, then it sets code 44 meaning...

    '09 5.0 TKS (Carb) not running

    It should, the carb is full of fuel and should run for several minutes just idling If it doesn't then there is a short somewhere. Will need a voltmeter to see 12V with key ON (motor not running) on purple wire. Should be on one side of the oil switch and + side of coil. If less then 12V not...

    '09 5.0 TKS (Carb) not running

    Starter or pump is drawing to much current or pur/yel is shorting out Disconnect pur/yel from starter then jumper oil switch to get it to run. It should run without the jumper once started but find out if still gets hot

    '09 5.0 TKS (Carb) not running

    Probably no 12V power going to the motor. By jumping the fuel pump directly it would back feed the the motor. Being a carb once the fuel bowl is filled the motor would keep running until the fuel ran out. When you disconnect power from the pump it dies right away because it also removed power...

    Bravo drive is hard to shift into reverse?

    While getting a new upper will fix the issue, some mechanics say to replace because they are not skilled enough or don't want to spend the time. Replacing the gear, upper shift shaft and clutch should fix the drive. Note: some shops use lube other then Merc lube because its cheaper. If they...

    Mercruiser 3.0 TKI engine crank half time - never starts

    That's a messy wiring diagram. The ACR is not connected directly to the Bats, but shows it does connect to each and thru switch. The ACR should be direct connect without switches. The trim should be connected to the start Bat With the house Bat not being charged thru the ACR while motor is...

    Need Help on 5.8fsi Couple of Issues

    While it hasn't been verified I would believe its electrical. Fuel pressure should have been maintained by hot wiring. As to what's causing it to stop, nothing is giving a clue. Don't know enough about the system and don't have a manual. Just found the manual in DonS post at 4shared, I'm...

    7.4mpi just started running rough and with gas coming out exhaust

    yep it was right there The issue of black plugs on one side and white on the other is just weird, unless someone has moved the injector connectors so this would happen. If that's the case, then I would expect this is a ECM issue or a bad connection
