    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    The HVS distributor has a metal body and a plastic cap. Edit: maybe I should say not all are metal With putting some gas down the TB we know that its not missing gas its missing spark. Remove the distributor cap, then bump the starter until the notch on the harmonic balancer aligns with the...

    Issue with Kohler Genset

    I'm thinking the other board had another connection. Unable to say for sure, and I don't have a 8C manual Where does the other end connect to?

    Issue with Kohler Genset

    Compare the board removed with the one installed, are they exactly the same?

    battery warning light

    I don't see that you have a problem. The standard marine ALT does the same thing even on a 12V system. Most don't have lights but gauges. If the gauge is watched, it stays low until the first time the rpms are increased, then the ALT starts producing full output and stays that way

    Why do they make 12 point sockets and wrenches?

    If your ever in a tight area trying to remove a bolt/nut and can only move the wrench barely one point. Or even worst slightly less then one point

    battery warning light

    When the motor first starts what is the output voltage of the ALT? After the motor is reved up, what does it change to? I don't have a wiring diagram for the motor

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    Always wet, if it rains a bunch and your not under cover then ok, but if it has always been wet even when it doesn't rain then there is a leak somewhere

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    Lets find out for sure its fuel with an easy test Remove the flame arrestor off the throttle body (TB) Take 15 to 25 ML of gas and pour into the TB Try to start the motor. If it starts and dies its fuel and were on the right path

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    Unless your getting bad parts, the fall off of fuel pressure is easy to diagnosis. Mentioned the cool fuel module was replaced, and the module contains pump, cooler and regulator. Unless these were used parts, you should not be having this issue. 0Hg would be fine while cranking You could...

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    Look at the fuel filter housing, there will be 3 lines on it. One from the tank, one going to the fuel pump and one coming back from the fuel pump regulator. Look at the arrows on the filter housing, If the line coming back from the regulator is removed and blocked off, and the filter head...

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    No, that's not good, it should stay there and very slowly drop if at all It might be leaking back thru the pump, regulator or an injector To test, need to block off the fuel line going to the fuel rail and attach gauge. Turn key ON and see if gauge stays up then its an injector or fuel line...

    Mercruiser 3.0 est distributor problem

    It shouldn't do that, and I would say the issue is with the module The timing should advance to about 12* when the jumper is removed as it states in the docs above

    Plug gap and Compression

    There all within 10% of lowest, and your 120 may be just the gauge. If its not the gauge then the motor will run fine, just not have as much power as when new

    Mercruiser 3.0 est distributor problem

    Would be in neutral If its stalling with the wires connected then there is something wrong with the distributor module

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    Disconnect the gray from the back of the Tach. You want to see 300 rpm when cranking but there is no way you will see 3000 It ran fine before the rain so a bad connection is where I'm leaning

    Mercruiser 5.0 MPI 2013. Crank but no start.

    ok, the key is turned ON and the fuel pump runs for a couple seconds The fuel pressure is at 43 psi at the rail When the motor is cranking do you get at least 300 rpm? If not check for 12V at the coil with ignition ON
