1991 Sanger DX

[TMoNeE]

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had a PDF of the engine manual for a 1991 Sanger DX, it has a mercruiser 350 but thats about all I know. I can't seem to find much information on google so I was wondering if anyone had the engine manual or could tell me more about the motor/carb? I am having a bogging problem and am trying to research

Look on the block around the starter for the serial number.

Can you also point out what that tube is in the middle on the back of the motor with the white bracket holding it?

Re: 1991 Sanger DX

It is a bilge blower and 2 hoses. Hooked up so wrong that it's scary. That "White Bracket" is the bilge blower. You have the pickup hose picking up out of the bilge, and pumping the air right back into the bilge about a foot from the intake. It does nothiing.

It's kind of amazing what previous owners with no knowledge of what or why or how things should be done, can do to a boat.
Be careful when you sell it, you will be the previous owner to the buyer.

Ayuh,... You've got a SBC, probably with a 4bbl. carb, at about 260hp...

I'm guessin' it's the Carb that's the problem....

Re: 1991 Sanger DX

Re: 1991 Sanger DX

Usually the blower will suck the air out of the bilge and out the vent facing aft. fresh air inlet vent would face foward and direct clean air into the motor box.
