    Noise after impeller change

    It can get noisy. Removing them today to get them rebuilt. Thanks, I'll do just that. It's odd that it coincided with me changing the impeller.. I wonder if I hit it and moved it around..

    Noise after impeller change

    Hi everyone, changed the impellers today on my 2008's 5.7L gi-300-j. Both were in not to bad of shape. Installed easily enough, however I noticed an off noise from the engine afterwards. Below is a link to he video I took. Temps are good. Seems to be running fine. No leakage. Any thoughts...

    Parts Manuals Anyone?

    Genmar built them. They used a lot of interchangeable parts is understanding. What motors and outdrives do you have? I've been having the traditional trim cover and cylinder issues with the DPS-A. Thinking about rebuilding the fuel pump too.

    Parts Manuals Anyone?

    Good luck. I have the exact boat and it is impossible to find any information on it. How are you finding the boat? Any issues?

    5.0 GXi Rough Idle

    Do you know what the pressure is in the low pressure side of the fuel pump? Any whining coming from the fuel pump?

    Ram cylinders

    Fair enough. I think my plan will be to order the rebuild kits, get some hydraulic place nearby to do it, then the marina to install them. The boat has to be lifted out for the work by the marina anyway. Then they can flush both pumps and do the covers at the same time.

    Ram cylinders

    Roger. That side has enterely stopped moving. I can hear the motor running, but I guess I was concerned that they are seized and beyond rebuilding. It's frustrating because on the other side I have that trim cover that is busted and water is for sure in that pump (VP sending me 2 trim...

    Melting Fuel Pump Relays Volvo Penta 5.0 GXi

    My relay went out last week. Replaced it. Have run about 10 hours on it since and no issues. I still have the original fuel pump. I thought it was due to the fuel pump working extra hard due to that paint issue or some other type of restriction. Now that you mentioned you have replaced the...

    Ram cylinders

    2008 or thereabouts. They are attached to the VP Gi-300-j. To be honest, I'm not that mechanically inclined to remove, rebuild, then re-attach successfully. I was hoping to have the trim pump/cover done at the same time too as that is causing some issues.

    Ram cylinders

    Hi all, appears one of the rams has a slight leak, which of course it does, as I have been leaking fluid through the notorious trim cover (Volvo is sending me two covers - which covers only half the problem as I think I need pumps too.. and you can't order the pumps seperatly.. issue for another...

    One speaker for sure starboard side near the battery switch control panel near the stern. I think there is another one on the port side as well. The control for the stereo (probably a Clarion CMD5) is a circle with a few controls on it. Measures about three inches across. Does yours have the...

    Any 06+ Cabrio 330 owners here

    Congrats. When do you take possession? If you have the DPS-A outdrives, check the trim pump covers for leaks. My did and Volvo is replacing them free of charge (a $500x2 part).

    Changing Sparkplugs

    Hi everyone, just wondering if there are any videos or documentation on how to change the plugs on a 5.7L GI-J. I've done some Googling and can't find much. Thanks.

    40amp vs 50amp Fuse

    Hi everyone, I have a bad 50 amp push-to-reset fuse. I have a three battery bank system and each has their own fuse from the charger. I am having difficulty sourcing a 50amp fuse where I am, but have access to a 40. The battery charger is a 40amp one. Anyone see issues with just using a 40...
