    Remote Oil Filter Reservoir Predicament

    Background: I bought a very nice 1990 larson senza 210 because it had a cracked block and exhaust manifolds. Came with 350 mag and alpha 1 outdrive. Boat only has 102 original hours. I got a remanufactured long block and am going back together with things currently. An interesting part that...

    Looking at a boat tommorrow- Is it worth it?

    I'm going to look at an 18.5' 1998 bayliner capri (I know the stigma), but the price seems right and I'm thinking about stealing some parts off it and parting it out. The interior is in below average shape with upholstery showing weather and pulled seams. I bet there is rot even though the guy...

    While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable?

    Re: While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable? Sorry to drag this tread on, especially since the subject has changed from the title... I'm continuing on about the water leak. Here is what I found. The boat leaks when in the water, not running, and only when completely floating. A hose or...

    Intermediate Shift Shaft shoe Sits too HIGH?

    Re: Intermediate Shift Shaft shoe Sits too HIGH? Thanks. Too bad that nut is blocking the part of the shaft I want to see. Attached is a picture of the flared out end of the shaft I wondered about.

    Intermediate Shift Shaft shoe Sits too HIGH?

    Had problems with shifting and talked to a mechanic who said I likely didn't have the washer on on the lower shift shaft bushing. He was right. Replaced the washer and put the halves back together. Now when trying to put the outdrive on the boat I swear that intermediate shaft boot sits too...

    While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable?

    Re: While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable? More pictures: There appears to be milky gear lube in the pictures, but I believe this may have been in the crevices of the outdrive since my original carrier seal leak and it found its way to my clean pieces. I'm not sure, but after...

    While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable?

    Re: While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable? Well I finally got the time to test the boat, and I've got a problem yet. I don't think my u joint bellow is seated and sealing properly because I watched as water dribbled into the bilge. The water was coming from about the middle of the...

    While I've got the outdrive off... shift cable?

    Background Info: My boat has a 175hp 262 4.3L v6 and an alpha 1 gen one (1990). My yoke/carrier seal started leaking the last trip out to the lake and got gear lube in the bellows and the bilge area. I have the clymer manual for my boat and have done a lot of outside reading about doing that...
