    72 Thunderbird Formula w/twin 165hp Mercs

    Wow long thread and I just now had a quick look, going to take some time but looks real interesting. Your switch probably works as WOG pointed out, push in first. As for wiring B, I and S should be as you listed previously. Easiest way is as Ted mentioned. If you want to wire it up with the...

    starter problems on 4.3 Volvo Penta GXI

    Here is one from the GXI 4.3 on Just Answers, note all the red wires but they connect back to the same point in other location(s) or via a circuit breaker. A starter is pretty simple and they work in one of two ways. Either a solenoid pushes the gear into the flywheel or a bendix is used to...

    My VP 4.3 GL and Starter

    The breaker is on the engine and has a red button. Looks like its probably a 50amp instead of 40. Need a volt meter or test light and follow it to the alternator and then thru the breaker. See lower left side of diagram below

    Bravo Shift cable tool (drive end)

    Agree with the 7/8 once the other end is adjusted using the cable extension tool and it's installed within spec. Now if you have a band new cable it should be pre-adjusted and all you need to do is adjust the height (3 inch) of the pivot point and install, no other adjusting is required.

    Delayed starting of '07 5.7L with TKS system, is this normal?

    Howdy Scott No, there is not a oil pressure delay to keep the engine from starting. The starting circuit is the same for TKS as with any other carb motor using an electric fuel pump. When the key is turned to start 12V is applied to the starter solenoid and at the same time the 12V bypasses...

    2003 Mercruiser 6.2 MPI Exhaust Manifold cracks

    With free flowing water as we know it flows the path of least resistance. My thought remains that somehow the manifold is not getting sufficient water to it. From the hose routing the risers and manifold is getting water but the amount is probably the issue. Could be getting more in the riser...
