    Trailer guides with step in the way

    Need to attach engine deck cover

    I have a 2000 Monterey 19ft. All hardware is missing from engine deck cover. I can't tell if there was ever a hinge on the rear or just bolts. It has gas springs to hold front up. I guess if no hinge, any bolts would have to be a little loose so it can open. Bolt heads are under the vinyl, so...

    Water pump dripping 5.0 GL

    I found what looks like a good rebuild kit on ebay. Other kits had seals with springs that would rust and made in China bearings. This kit has a stainless seal spring and the OEM SKF bearing...

    Thank you Scott. I'll try to get a better look. I think it's the raw water pump. It's splashing off the belts

    Water pump dripping 5.0 GL

    I think its the water pump, hard to tell. All hoses are tight. Anyway, it's about 1 drop per second. Can I run it once this weekend, or is this a high risk?

    Starter options for 2000 5.0 GL?

    I finally took it apart. Looks like it was submerged at one time. Amazing that it still worked. Commutator has chunks missing.

    Starter options for 2000 5.0 GL?

    I ordered the DB Electrical. On my boat the starter is not too hard to remove, so if it fails in a year I'll survive.

    Starter options for 2000 5.0 GL?

    Thanks to all who replied. I also have a reputable rebuild shop that quoted 80 for a marine rebuild unless major parts are needed.

    Starter options for 2000 5.0 GL?

    I opened the starter cover, it's full of rust by the brushes. Looks like it got submerged by previous owner. Guess I'll replace it.

    Starter options for 2000 5.0 GL?

    I think starter is bad, clicks but won't crank. Battery 12.5 volts, all cables cleaned, tried new ignition switch. Can I use the insides of a Chevy automotive starter and install in my sealed marine case? Price is $400 for a marine starter.

    Slow to no cranking at times

    5.0 GL Cranks slow at times, sometimes it's fine. All cables in engine area clean and tight. Battery at 12.8, 14 volts while running. Ignition switch? Starter? Solenoid? How do I narrow it down?
