    Vapor lock issues

    Assuming your motor is a MPI (serial number are best) Running the pump by an auxiliary means will turn the pump ON but don't think this will stop VL. Installing a boost pump was something that Merc tried to fix the VL issue, but if you look in later years, this to was no longer being...

    Rinda scanner only test half of engine ?

    The scanner won't do a misfire test for your motor because it uses batch firing of injectors. Only ones that it will do a misfire test are those which have individual fired injectors like the 496 (8.1) This is an example of batch firing, 1-4-6-7 and fired at one time and 2-3-5-8 get fired at...

    Y pipe replacement

    3.0l fuel pump fittings

    Using the S/N I'm finding the line does use 2 inverted flare male fittings, but on the pump side it uses a fitting from 3/8 Female JIC with a compression. I think the easiest way to fix this would be to use 3/8 brake line. Without knowing the ID of the line you have, would need a inverted...

    Glaston GXL 205 wont start :-(

    If the relay is removed and you have continuity there would be a problem. If your reading it still installed maybe not. Not an expert with the GXI. Since the boat starts the relay is ok I would say
