Hey everyone. I'm new to this forum and I'm also VERY new to a volvo penta I/O that is in a '72 Naughtaline houseboat that I just acquired. I'm sure I will have lots of questions and I start to familiarize myself with all this and hope to glean some info from the archives and also from you all...
Off the bat, it looks like I have a broken fitting that I am trying to replace I'm told its an intake bellows fitting (small thing that connects to a 1'ish inch hose. I can't upload a photo here until i have made at least three posts (forum rules) so hopefully that vague description is enough for now? Does anyone know where I can find a new one or what I would google to to try and find it?
Perhaps more importanly, I'm trying to find out more info about my outdrive and motor so I can be more efficient with my search terms. So far I haven't found any stamps/tags/plates on the outdrive that give me any clues...except that it says "Volvo Penta" right above the outboard. I can't post pictures yet, but if anyone can give me more specifics on how to narrow down a model of my outdrive it would be appreciated...
Thanks for any thoughts!
