    Volvo Actuator Leak

    Yes, the actuator is leaking. It's leaking very quicky, like a hose is loose even though they are tight and not leaking. Or maybe the seal is just cracked. Has anyone seen them leak that fast?

    Volvo Actuator Leak

    I know, another leak thread. Found a leak at the bottom of the actuator on the cotter pin. Not seeing any loose lines, but it's dripping from there pretty good. Does anyone know which cylinder this leak could be coming from? I know there is a company called 5 star that can send rebuild kit, but...

    I will check. I have an invoice for **** Sherrer Marine in Norfolk, CA. I think the carb was already on it because no mention of carbs in invoice. But starter and all that was replaced by them in Nov 2022.

    I just looked and it's a 1406. Bummer! Now I need to decide if I want to buy a 1409 or something else.

    It runs very well with the Edelbrock, so probably won't mess with it for now. Was never a fan of Edelbrock carbs at all, especially on 4x4 trucks. Any roll and they flood. Was a fan of the Q-jet for that reason, almost ran like fuel injection.

    What engine in new boat

    Trying to identify the heads, I'm pretty certain they are the "906" Vortec heads. The heads on my boat have a large single hump, instead of a sawtooth pattern that the "062" would have. And the 5.0 would have a square instead of a hump...

    It's pretty quick out of the hole, which makes more sense now that I know it's a 5.7. I may be a bit underpropped as well. Topped out at 47-48mph GPS at 5,000RPM. Full tank of fuel, 4 adults, 3 kids and a bunch of coolers.

    Why do you think that about the diz? New to the marine engines.

    What engine in new boat

    Everything I can find with 880 and 5.7LG SGI tells me it's 96-02 5.7, factory roller cam, Vortec. Considering I got this for so cheap thinking it's a plain 5.0, considering this a decent win. Unless there is something missing shows it's a 5.0. But I guess with 5.7LG on the block is pretty...

    I definitely tried, even with mirror and good headlamp. I just don't see any castings. The only two I saw was 880 on side of block and 5.7LG SGI right by coil mount, and both being port side.

    It's so hard to get back there and look. These are the only other castings I could find below cyl head. It for sure says 5.7LG but can't make out after that.

    It has 880 on engine block

    What engine in new boat

    It's just slightly odd because being an Edelbrock. It has new motor and drive, so if they went through all the trouble of pulling it, why not just go 5.7? But of course there are no identifiers to check. Did the 5.0 ever come with a 4 barrel? Never was a fan of the Edelbrock on my old 4x4's on...

    What engine in new boat

    Hi everyone, picked up a 2004 Larson 210LXi. Trying to figure out what engine is in it. Was told it was 5.0. It runs very well on water. I can't find any markings, but it does have a 4bbl Edelbrock. When would I 5.0 come with this carb? Could it actually be a 350?

    Mercury 3.0 EST no spark

    Well it's a friend's boat, he got a Sierra module at West marine. Still stuck in base mode. I did notice the voltage coming into dizzy from coil was 11.8v, while battery voltage was a bit low at 12.2v. Wondering if these modules require a certain amount of voltage to come out of base mode...

    Mercury 3.0 EST no spark

    Yeah, need to find a good quality module. The OEM says "Elko". I even tried completely disconnecting the 3 wire plug on dizzy with no change. Of course, if I manually move dizzy while in it's stuck base mode to 12* BTDC it starts to smooth out considerably.

    Mercury 3.0 EST no spark

    I checked timing with shift interrupt completely disconnected, bypassed and connected with no difference in timing. Still was 1* BTDC. Was trying it also while running, so would think they were be a noticeable change in idle, but nothing. I still need to check if there is 12v on the black wire.
