    Bennett Trim Repair And Auto Pro Install

    Back to the orange things: The orange pieces are part of the Port and Starboard trim connectors. Thought they looked weird but didn't dawn on me until after I was done and looking at left over parts. I then noticed the same orange pieces inside the connectors. Pulled the connector apart...

    Bennett Trim Repair And Auto Pro Install

    Was running the port wires over to starboard side, then needed to put the connectors on the wire ends. Easy enough, just slide them in the connector until they lock. They come with tabs to mark the cables and looks like lock pieces (orange things) to keep the connectors from coming loose. They...

    I removed some things and managed to get barely enough room to get on the starboard side. I can reach the stern, and just be able to turn enough to get to the pump. This is not fun No complements to the pump fill spot, its about a 3/8 hole which was a bugger to get trans fluid in. At least...

    Need Help w. My General Electrical Setup

    I'm saying in most cases it would be a house and start bat. Not saying it is but looking at your pic, it appears this would be the case. The breaker panel shows, breakers for Fridge, Macerator, Helm and others. {quote=]I see. So, basically by checking for continuity I might determine that...

    Need Help w. My General Electrical Setup

    First all grounds go to ground, including the house and two starter bats, otherwise you need an onboard charger just to charge the Inverter (house) bat. Lets call your bats as follows, 1) Start 2) House 3) Inverter, this way we can keep things straight. The normal configuration for batteries...

    ESA testing/wiring help please.

    Howdy I'm finding the 2.9 motor was installed in Rangers and Broncos from 86 to 92. The motor was never installed in a boat and this is the issue. ESA module needs to be connected to the distributer to cause the motor to miss. This is the wiring for the OMC V8 The wiring for the 2.9L V6 is...

    Taped the control template in position. Think this would work better using something clear (in my case) or even wax paper. This way I could see in reference to the holes already their. If I do this again, might try something like that. Then cut the center piece out using a hack saw blade...

    Well alrighty then :) Removed the end caps (hinges) off both and was going to install new ones and the instructions did not say which of the rods to use, only that the pointy end goes to the bottom. Kit comes with 4 rods, 2 short and 2 a bit longer. Called Bennett and I need to use the long...

    Bennett Trim Repair And Auto Pro Install

    The parts came in, and the senders come with 2 sets of rods. The directions indicate to install with point end into the cylinder but does not say which to use. I'm going to assume it will be ones which will not interfere with screwing the hinge on. Will also need to drill a 5/16 hole for the...

    Wiring diagram

    Been a whole lot of folks ask same question on many different types and the answers have been pretty much the same; Its doubtful to find one by a manufacture for the boat, even boat is different. What does stay the same is the wiring for the motor an controls. So look for wiring for which...
