I have looked at the "Adults Only" Section trying to find a link to purchase a Parts Manual for my engine with no success.
Possibly I missed something?
If you know of a link that I may pursue, please let me know. A CD to download would work as well.

I am not sure if this where post needs to be but I must try it somewhere. My engine is a 1985 Mercruiser 260 and I have been painting the engine as of late. I noticed that the fittings on the high pressure hose for the steering are badly rusted beyond sand blasting and I would like to replace...
As I continue on with my painting project of my Mercruiser 260 engine, I have noticed some rusty areas that are not easily gotten to for wire brushing. Is there a product that sprays or brushes on that will get rid of the rust? I am using Dupli-Color paint with a ceramic additive high temp (500...
I just noticed that my rear engine mount bushings on my 1985 Mercruiser 260 are needing to be replaced. Is there a good service manual that I may download so that I can see the procedure done? I have a Clymer manual that came with the boat but it lacks more than I could print here. I have the...
I am getting ready to put my newly painted engine back in and was wondering if there are some better valve cover gaskets besides cork? The engine has the old style four bolts on the outside of the cover. Also wondering where is a good place to get the gaskets. The engine is a 350 chevy that the...
Does anyone know where I could get a pair of valve cover decals for a Merc. 260 (350 c.i.d.)? I am doing a repaint on my engine and would like to top it off with some decals. Also looking for the plastic cover for the flame arrestor on the carb.
I have my engine out of the boat for general cleaning and painting and am not satisfied with the plumbing. I want to replumb and tidy things up so it looks nice. Here are a couple of photos of my engine as it looks now. I don't like the fittings that were used, or all the hoses hanging where...
I am getting ready to pull my 350 chevy engine out of my boat to clean and paint it. Are there any real good degreasers and paints that I should look for that you folks have had success with? I live in S.E. Alaska so don't have access to alot of fancy stuff. Would really like to use "rattle"...
i am looking for a couple of valve covers, (no chrome). They must have the oil fill caps and the vent ports for the crankcase vents. I also don't have the engine serial number because it was replaced a couple of years ago before I bought it so it is probably a much newer block than the 1985 that...
I have a Mercruiser 260 MR (Chevy 350) engine hooked up to an Alpha 1 Gen one outdrive. The heat exchanger in back next to the transom and I would like to move it to the front of the engine. It will be much easier to check the water each time I go out. Has anyone done this? Good idea, bad idea...
I have a 2001 9.9 Yamaha that I need to replace the driveshaft in. I believe that I have to remove the prop shaft in order to get to the nut on the bottom of the drive shaft that holds the pinion on.The problem is that the end cap/bearing carrier which is right in front of the prop is corroded...
I have a 23' GlasPly that needs new tracks for the side windows. How does one replace these? Are there tracks available? The existing tracks are full of dirt and moss and need to be replaced. I have not been able to see how to take the windows out.

I am trying to find some replacement knobs for my side sliding windows. There is a 3/8" hole in the glass and the knobs are around 1-3/4" in diameter. So far, it doesn't look like anyone has ever had to replace them. My boat is a 1985 23' Glasply with the Alaskan bulkhead. Has anyone had any...
I am looking for the pull knobs for my side glass sliding windows. Does anyone have any idea where I might get four of them? They are about 1-3/4" in diameter and are made to fit the 3/8" hole that is in the glass. My boat is a 23 foot GlasPly with the Alaska Bulkhead. I also wonder if anyone...
