    Mercruiser 4.3L Engine Won't Start

    Thanks for the number The slave is on top the motor and looks like the pic below. With the key on or off (doesn't matter) jump across the two large top terminals. When doing this it should energize the starter, then its probably the relay. To verify if it does, then check to see if your...

    91 Mercruiser 7.4l Bravo One Tripping Circuit Breaker

    I think this is the Ah Ha moment Someone cut the Red/Purple (Main power from Battery) and is using the smaller Purple wire to power everything on the motor. The Red/Purple should go to the 50 amp breaker, from there thru the engine connector to the key switch By cutting the Red/Purple...

    91 Mercruiser 7.4l Bravo One Tripping Circuit Breaker

    That's a TB distributor, and the module is a TB4. I'm figuring the wires have lost there color thru time and heat. Remove the wire the arrow is pointing to. The other one goes to the module
