Hey guys first off thanks for all the great knowledge that's out there on these forums
I just bought a 230 celebrity with a 7.4 454 mercruiser.
The engine has 720 ish hours and runs well except for a miss
Every now and then at full throttle. I had the owner replace the plugs
Before I got though. I tried to seek out service records as all
The work was done at one marina but they had no files of any bellows/gimbal work.
There is about a quarter inch of play in the bravo stern drive. The trim gauge doesnt work either.
I've read that water pump impeller replacement should be done with every used boat so
I'm going to attemp that.
Other than what I've said is there anyone who could offer me some advice
On where to go next in ensuring the boat will serve me for many seasons?
