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

    Don't think its either Check fuel pressure. The mefi 1 and 2 has very little smarts. It can show if there is a code, but usually does not provide enough info to designate what the actual problem is Of fuel pressure is high. This can indicate that maybe some if injectors are leaking. Testing...

    1998 vip valiant

    Very doubtful you can find good used parts and new are not available. Those items are normally made by by using old parts and making new. Then re-upholster them

    2003 Mercrusier 5.7 350Mag MPI vs. 2001 Mercrusier 5.7 EFI?

    2007 4.3 Trim relay clicks, no start.

    Agree, if its open or has a bad connection. The NS switch connects the yellow/red wire from the start side of the key switch thru the NNS to the start relay. The switch closes when in neutral so its safe to start

    You said by the carb, which it should look like this And there should just be one. Down by the trim pump there are also 2 of the above ones which are the same and are trim relays. The trim relays have nothing to do with a motor starting

    Engine Vent Duct - Which One?

    Use either, the hose doesn't come in contact to oil/gas enough to worry about. That is so long as there are no flames then all bets are off 3 inch sounds right, its what I used
