    Being a Chrysler motor see if Frank Acampora may assist it should be pretty standard. This one should work, but wait for others to double check. http://www.iboats.com/Sierra-Ignition-Switch/dm/cart_id.356033800--session_id.206272045--view_id.47122

    03 9.9 kicker

    It's similar to a harmonic puller, just smaller. Don't know how handy you are, but I would make one. Find a grade 8 fine thread bolt and nut. Get a piece of 1/4 inch steel and drill a hole in the center for the bolt, and three smaller ones for the bolts which screw into the flywheel. If you have...

    Houseboat wiring dilemma

    Being an 88 it might not have start switches. Would help if you could provide the wire colors on the switches. Still thinking one momentary switch would be the horn, as for the other two would help with wires attached. Below pics are for Mercruiser but wiring should be close

    Advice on rot!

    Have to agree this is not going to be pretty. Hope you got it for free, or you really love boat because what I'm seeing it appears the entire hull is going to need to be stripped out. For the most part take it down to the bare hull and start over. May need to look like the one below before...

    House Battery charging question

    From what I can find it will help but the Gen will not put out enough "IF" the batteries need no more then 4.6 AMP (80% load) from the Gen to keep the batteries charged. Your charger (model TC4012) can draw up to 7.7 AMPs. There is always efficiency loss when changing from DC to AC or the...

    safety chain plate for light trailer...

    Have a few ideas: If you can find a ball with long shank, just drill a hole thru the center and bolt on. If there is a place under the bumper that this plate could be welded to or a shackle Have any place you could wrap a piece of chain around the rear? I guess you don't want to drill two...

    5.7 has spark question

    You saying you have spark, just maybe not good spark. Since your getting spark I don't see it being a distributer issue. Check for spark by pulling the coil wire off and see if it comes steady, if it is steady I would go back to the fuel side. Even a weak spark will set off gas unless your...
