    Need Electrical guros expertise

    The black wire appears to have not been used. Many times these are used for items used on other engines, in this case I don't think it was used. Being black it is a ground wire. You have rust on the slave solenoid and this could be the issue but could still be the solenoid. To see if you can...

    Bravo III outdrive pickup not picking up water.

    Exhaust flappers are a good thing and to protect your engine they should be replaced. As for fixing the hose issue, if you are unable to get the water to flow freely then the engine will most likely have to come out to replace the hose. If you can get at the fitting it can be done without...
