Need to change just a bit, sorry my bad. The motor is still killed as said but note in this pic, the kill switch is on the side with the magneto. So the key kills the motor by applying a ground thru the key switch, but the actual kill switch is before the key switch (which make since). Note...

For your motor to run the magneto needs to be ungrounded. Your key switch will have two M connections which one side goes to the magneto and the other should go to ground. Both connections should use black wire. What needs to happen is when the kill switch is in run mode there should be a open...

There are more entries then the MEFI-3 is set to read. Here is for MEFI-1, 2, 3 which are fairly primitive.

The MIL light is not going to cut it, you need a LED with a built in resistor. The built in resistor to cut done on the current the light will pull. Your MIL light in most cases is an incandescent bulb or an LED without a resistor. Go to Radio Shack or other, maybe an auto parts store may...

Just to be clear, using the common on a battery switch is fine so long as your not talking about a common ground. The battery switch common should be used to combine or switch the battery to the motor to start, Using a battery switch to switch batteries so you can run accessories is not the...

Flywheel cover is ok It is best to use a stud, reason is the stud allows to proper torque to be used to secure the flywheel. Using a bolt with the wire lugs under it puts soft meatal and copper under it. You want steel to steel for correct torque The sender should only have two wires, post...

Just for others clarification the River Queen is a House boat type Here is AC wiring and probably show more then you have. In has dual 120VAC power, an inverter/charger and Generator wiring with a subpanel. Note in this case there is an inverter/charger which chargers the batteries when...

Howdy Don't know which cool fuel you will be using so this is the basics. The VST supplies high pressure fuel to the fuel rail. The fuel which is not used is returned back to the VST. There are also other methods but as before this is the basic The first Gen cool fuel uses two regulators...

The timing is critical on these motors and is not done with a timing light.

There are a few in the manual and I'm mostly using this one. Note it uses standard colors

Need to find out if your working with pre BIA or post BIA wiring. I would start first by ringing out the engine harness connector. Put one probe of the ohm meter in a pin and go around trying to find which wire is connected A is yellow and red - ALT to Reg (not used) B Is purple and yellow -...

There will always be rust in the water channel port, the issue is there is water showing up in side the intake. So my guess is the intake has a crack in it or a gasket was leaking. The previous pics didn't show signs that a gasket was leaking from what I could see

My first guess would be the slave solenoid, they are the first to go. Its on top the motor. Turn key one and jump across the top two large terminals on top. Doing this should cause the starter to turn the motor. If it does then its this solenoid, if it doesn't cause the starter to turn...

Looking at your pics I think its a Mercruiser but not for sure. So first let us know what is the manufacture Here is the wiring diagram for Merc

Can not say if I ever saw one of these, but could have looked right at it but not know the brand

Most of the wires are doubles, if not triples. You should have a purple coming in and a purple going out to the next spot. You should also have a black going in and back out. There will also be a wire used for turning on the lights in the gauge and going back out. The wire your looking for...

The motor dies when the ground is removed from the magneto. The engine will run when the ground is connected. Most kill lanyards have a Normally Closed (NC) position and a Normally Open (NO) position. You need the lanyard to be in the NC position when installed and running. Not on your key...

I like more of water cooled ones and with a bit of an angle

Top is threads and bottom is email received, selecting either one will take you to the last post

Hey maybe better yet, install it in my Chrysler with an Aronson drive
