what you dont show is the rubber line going to the carb, Mercruiser NEVER had that setup.mount the pump directly to the engine, get some steel brake line tubing, a double flaring kit ,and bend your own.

Exept for the water/fuel separator I left every thing the way it was, here is a picture of the engine, see the pump going to the carb?? I should put the pump closer to the engine using brake line??

OK BT Doctur, I got now, Yes this is the way I bought the boat, I would like to put it back the way it should be, I wonder if the fuel pump is pumping enough to the carb strong enough, I am going to compare pressure while I am at it too, I have a feeling that the engine and or stern drive were replaced, because according to SEI Drives I should have a ALPHA ONE Gen 1,sterndrive, the S/N says it's just an alpha one, Yes it only has two bolts not four, The Alpha one has two. The gen 1 has 4.????? This is a new thread, some one had asked about so I posted how mine was set up,Justin
Thanks again boat Doc for all your help and Info. I will deffinitly put it the way it should be, I do not know the full history of the boat and some things are just not adding up which makes things harder, but with your guys help we do figure it out:).................................Thanks again!!................Pat
