    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    It did end up being the diode on the cranking circuit but I replaced both for good measure. Thanks to everyone that chimed in, I always end up learning something new. Posted a video explaining how I understand the system and what I did to repair it if anyone is interested or might find it...

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    🤦🏻 Holy hell do I have a thick skull sometimes. I looked at that number 3 different times and each time I read an i at the end. Took a picture and still read an i. Glad you all are smarter then my dyslexia..my mistake. Confirmed a GS. Not for nothing tho I learned something new about model...

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    Yessir. I’m surprised myself not to find one. I was under the impression they were mandatory for all marine platforms where an electric fuel pump is used. But definitely not one just above the oil filter where you’d normally see it like you said nor on the top of the block in the back next to...

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    It’s not TBI it is in fact carbureted. I double checked the model number and what I posted it right.

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    Thanks everyone. The mistake I was making was believing I should be getting 12v with the key in the on position when the engine isn’t running. Makes sense that it only gets 12v while cranking until the alternator takes over, especially since this engine isn’t equipped with an oil pressure...

    Trailering boat with outdrive struck down?

    I have a bump starter I keep in my boat that I have used for just such an occasion, although usually it’s for other boaters since I keep the spare parts for mine onboard. However what you can do is jump 12v + to the blue (up) or green (down) to get by. My solution requires the culprit to be a...

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    Volvo Penta 5.7 GSi PWTR Hi everyone. Having intermittent issues with the fuel pump. New fuel pump, filters, pick up, anti syphon, relay, and fuel line. I’m getting 12v on the battery wire at the relay (30), but with the ignition on I’m only getting 1V to (85) IGN/Alternator. I guess I’m a...

    I’ll be honest, I had higher hopes.

    2006 115 XL continuous alarm above 1500

    Hi everyone, Got a 2006 Mercury 115 4 stroke EFI XL Serial: 1B418890 I get a continuous alarm in gear or neutral somewhere around 1500 rpm or so. Soon as I let of the throttle it runs normally. It acts just as if the rev limiter is activated and it very well could be but I don’t know how I can...

    Boat info library

    Anyone know what happened to the boat info library domain? http://boatinfo.no/lib/library.html I haven’t been around the forum for quite some time so haven’t kept up with the comings and going’s, but that was sure a nice resource to have around. Bummer if it’s gone for good.

    Power issue through ignition switch

    Hey guys... 4.3L serial # 0F587086 (1995) I’m randomly not getting power through the key switch. I have 12v at “B” connection but when I turn ignition to “I” or on position I lose the 12v on both sides (“b” and “I”). Took the ignition switch off and it tested fine (continuity from b->i in the...

    Bravo 3 digital trim to analog wiring

    Gentlemen. I picked up a 2002 formula with twin Mercruiser 496 mag engines (I’ll get back with the serial number shortly). Previous owner replaced the trim sending unit with the 2 wire analog pucks vs using the correct wire (Red,white,blue) digital pucks. The analog gauges installed on the boat...

    Aq170 starting system wire diagram

    Happy holidays everyone. I’ve got this project boat with a Volvo penta AQ170 B30 engine. The previous sucker that owned this undid all of the wires under the dash and I’m having a harder time putting it all back together then I anticipated. Went to use the old IBoats library and it’s down so if...

    Alpha, Gen.II lower unit interchangability,...

    I know this thread is ancient but it's literally what I have now except backwards. The upper is a 1:62 and the lower is a 2:1. Any negative consequences for matching these two?
