    Old ford 302 no spark

    Where the rotor is pointing is not that much of an issue, so long as the firing order is correct. It pointing 180* out (or backwards) just means instead of it being on #1 compression, its on #1 exhaust stroke

    2002 Mercruiser 4.3L MPI Fuel Pump Style

    The 0M number is the serial number, and your correct 861156A1 is the pump part number. Just search on it and it will show several that will work The pump can pressurize more then 42psi but the regulator (item 13) which is attached to the cooler keeps the pressure constant. The noise might be...

    Old ford 302 no spark

    It should be dead on it. When a timing light is used, the pointer aligns up with the additional marks on the balancer. There are other marks with numbers. Your looking for 6 or 8* BTDC when running

    Blue Sea Add a Battery

    I have only one installed on one side. If something happens it will blow, and I'm using a breaker I also charge the start bat first because the house is not used that much. Would rather make sure its charged over the house. That said if I used the house side more, and had more then one house...

    Old ford 302 no spark

    The coil should be labeled "use with external resistor" Your motor should have a resistance wire which is connected to the + side of the coil. It will look like a normal purple wire but it has 3 ohm resistance built in. There will also be another wire which comes from the starter to give it...

    Mercruiser 3.0 Fuel Issues

    Im going the wrong way!

    Changing the pump orientation changes the how much pressure is used and in what direction. The pump has to be placed in the correct place. Changing props will work but parking and performance will be an issue.

    Im going the wrong way!

    The 71C can be changed to run opposite but the pump has to be changed on front of the transmission. Look at the front of the trans pump. Look for the LH and RH printing on the front housing pump. If the case allows the pump to be rotated then it should run opposite rotation. Don't run the...
