    Mercruiser Bravo 5.7 liter stalls when coming down to idle off of engine rev.

    Would also be a good idea to check fuel pressure. Should be 43 psi at 1800 rpm To check pressure you would need a fitting like this one to place inline at the TB part number 91-806901

    Indmar 5.7 TBI transplant into 88 SeaRay - Shift Interrupt & Base Ignition Timing

    Cool, that will make it easy to use the shift interrupter. Need the connector that plugs into the one on the right with 4 pins. Then this will be used to set timing and also for shift interrupter. You will need 12V from a key active source, (purple wire possibly). Connect the 12V to the wire...

    Bennett Trim Repair And Auto Pro Install

    The port side trim cylinder needs repaired. It is cracked on the left side top and leaking fluid. The boat is a 1994 model so its kind of old. Looks like I can get the upper actuator hinge, just looking for the best repair and not necessarily the cheapest. Most the time I don't even use the...

    2001 SeaRay 340DA with MX6.2 Sterndrives: Starboard side no crank, electrically dead

    There should be two solenoids in the engine room, for port and starboard engines. When the switch is flipped at the helm this should energize the individual solenoids. Since you can start using the crossover, then your starboard solenoid has a bad connection or has gone out. Don't know what...

    2005 Tahoe Q4 Wiring

    If you have a single bi-color light then there will only be 2 wires and a single bulb, 12V and Ground. If your boat is larger and has two lights as shown in the port and starboard lights, then each will have a 12V and ground lead.

    really stupid question.... got my first i/o and can't figure out how to start it!

    Being a 1970, I don't think it has a man overboard kill switch. The way the throttle is located, I would think if there is anyway to get it in throttle only mode, it would need to be pushed in direction of arrow, then moved forward to throttle. With the key being unable to turn the motor over...

    2005 Tahoe Q4 Wiring

    Howdy The Nav light turns on the red/green nav lights and the white anchor light. One way it turns on both lights and the other should only turn on the anchor light. Can be wired by two methods, but one at the top is used most often Note, if your red/green lights are separated then there will...

    Engine will not start. No gauge movement!

    While this is an electrical issue, do think this should be in the Merc section Initial thought is there is a ground issue or your 20 amp fuse is blown.

    Bravo 2 outdrive removal - stuck

    The lube leak is normal for a little to leak out as the drive is removed while the male/female connector separates. It will leak more if the vales do not completely separate, the vale is held open

    87 Formula, mercruiser stalls

    Check the shift cables are adjusted correctly. The lower shift cable is seen in the vids in the adults only section. The throttle shift cable needs to have 3 inches of travel to work correctly. Here is the interrupter switch adjustment

    1984 Mercury 90 HP Tilt/Trim issues

    Howdy I think your dealing with a pump and check valve leak problem. Unable to find an outboard trim system, but have found one for a Mercruiser. The system works the same its just location and size. Note item 1 the shuttle valves. They are used to seal off the ports so fluid does not leak...

    4.3 - Alpha 1 loud clunk

    Many folks with Alpha drives put the drive in gear slowly, when it should be quick. As its starts to go in gear, you hear the gears clipping (grinding) until it is in gear. Doing this will round or chip the corners on the clutch. In the pic below it shows how to inspect

    1986 OMC 5.0L coil hot and wiring hot *PROBLEM SOLVED*

    Not seeing what your looking at but from my diagram it does show the wires all spliced together. Most all ALT's have a means of disconnecting the wires. As with most ALTs one lead is switched power and the other is sense. The ALT should need both to work, so removing just one side should keep...

    engine miss or electrical

    Timing for your year should be 8 BTDC. Setting timing at 10 could increase the chance of the knock sensor picking up a knock, but it shouldn't kill spark for a split second, it should only reduce the timing. It could be the knock module is doing something else but unsure right now. Don't...

    Engine "choking" between 800 - 1200 rpm

    OK, Should have said this before you went to check. Wonder if your getting the streams as soon as the throttle is moved, or does it move a little and then start streaming? May want to try this with the motor running and have someone try to throttle up and watch (with safety glasses) to see what...

    1996 Polaris SLT 780

    This is where the drain plug went. Someone has removed the hole drain plug assembly. Search for watercraft drain plug and find one that looks something like this. You can use a different type but it will take some modifications. There should be one on each side Search for "1996 polaris...

    Carburetor Port

    Not to change your mind, but every boat I own has the typical worm clamps with slots. Everybody still sells them including West M. Only time I ever see hose come up thru the clamp is when a gorilla installed it. Have used some of the grooved ones and don't much care for them. They also have...

    You will have an ignition module which the distributor is connected to. Are there any markings on it? Does it look like one of these?
