    It could be the sensor, cannot say for sure. Item 29 is the sensor but does not show where it goes. I will say every temp sensor I have seen is in the thermostat housing

    Merc 4.3 I/O thunderbolt V issue please help!

    :welcome: to iboats Smitty An engine serial number would help, but I'm going to go with this is a carb engine. To find an electrical problem you need to at least have a 12V test light, and volt meter would be better. Throwing parts at a problem is one way to lighten your wallet. It sounds...

    Bravo Gimbal ring wear

    The top of the B3 outdrive only sits about an inch above the water line so the top pin seal is always under water (single engine Formula 27PC). Several years ago I replaced the top pin and seal due to corrosion and water leaking in. Sent the gimbal ring to a company who also made the pin. When...

    need wiring help and advice

    The gauge wire to use depends on what it goes to and how far. For your setup I would not bother with how far (distance) just look at the unit you going to hook up (VHF 10 amp, 14 AWG wire, Trolling motor 20-40 amps and could be 12 or 24V) and use wire, breakers or fuses accordingly. Most...

    6.2 MPI Cranks but won't start.

    It could very well be, but if we go back I was lead to believe the TB-V troubleshooting guide was used and only the coil was not sparking. If this is not the case I suggest running through it.

    Suggested Recommendation to FIX Iboats for interum

    As we can all verify next to nothing is working correctly. Most all are trying to hang in here long enough to allow iboats to figure the issues out. Without getting into all what is not working I will suggest going back to a previous version. I would hope someone has a version even a year ago...
