    Throttle Cable PN

    they are not. they are specific to the length and the control type. hence why you must look at the numbers on your old cable.

    U/V light to control mold etc in basement, attic?

    UV light in the air handler and the wiring breaks down from UV exposure. I have used in line UV tubes in test tanks to keep crud at bay. However not sure if it's needed in an attic

    Your boat is listed with a 16" transom height. So the motor should be a short shaft

    Mercruiser 4.3 alarm won’t stop

    its proper marine gear oil. also make sure that you followed the manual on the fill proceedure since the boat sat for 7 years. you will most likely have to pull the reservoir out and clean it out as the factory Mercruiser oil has a bunch of wax and other fillers in it that drop out of suspension.

    I assume I need an engine alignment, vibration when drive is engaged

    Could have a cylinder with good compression and its not firing Especially if you have a crab cap

    check the props also, check to see if you have a dead cylinder. a motor with a dead cylinder will idle fine, however have a bit of vibration under load.

    Feed to hot water cylinder

    do you mean a heater core? if so, just cap/plug them. the port on the pump is the return, the port on the manifold is the supply. however just plug them if you want to remove the heater core.

    RE: Issues with Mercruiser 5.0 LX 4 Barrel Carb

    get a whole pump kit, not just the impeller if the motor is running, the impeller should be turning. unless of course, you have a bad coupler, you broke the upper gear teeth, or you broke a shaft.
