    Fuel line

    Good afternoon. I have a 1989 mercruiser 3.0. I had to replace the fuel line from the fuel pump to the carb. It’s a aftermarket rubber hose with steel ends with 3/8 thread. Now I can’t seem to find the correct coupling to connect the new fuel line to the fuel pump. Anyone have a part number or...

    Shift plate

    Aligning I mean I thought it would of aligned with the old parts I took off. If it can be mounted anywhere I can find somewhere in the general location and keep the cables where they need. Thanks

    Yeah that was another possibility. I planned on changing out the alternator but was just getting some other thoughts before doing that. It is probably really old

    Radio drains battery

    Good morning all. Question. What could be causing my radio to drain my battery. It’s a new battery. The boat is a 1989 Baja islander 190. I think it might be wired wrong but that’s why I’m asking. It has been like this ever since I’ve had it. Almost afraid to turn it off while we are just...

    Throttle cable

    What’s the best way to adjust the throttle cable? I have a 1989 Baja islander 190 mercruiser 3.0. I noticed while I was doing some things under the hood I would put it in throttle only and rev it up. Put it back in neautral but would still rev at a higher rpm. Not to bad but higher. I would have...
