    No power at dash

    Yes. I figure my frustration may help others…. And an expensive tow back to the dock!!

    No power at dash

    I found it. There is an additional 50 amp breaker behind the battery (similar to the one on the top of the engine) that supplied the dash. No mention of that in the owners manual??

    No power at dash

    I have power through the 90 amp fuse, on both sides of the 50 amp breaker and on the orange lead off of the alternator. Found a 5 and 15 amp fuse (for other systems) but both were good. I haven't been able to locate the elusive 20 amp fuse which is supposed to be inline for the dash

    No power at dash

    I had pulled the dash and didn’t see any inline fuse on the ign switch or otherwise. There is no power to the fuse board. I’m still digging

    removing AQ151

    I am trying to pull the AQ151 out of my boat. The drive is off, the 6 bolts out of the flange and the front mounts diconnected. I can lift it but it won't come forward. Am I missing something or is it just stuck and needs a little force to get out thanks,

    replacing AQ151

    I have an older 21' Steigercraft with an AQ151. It needs to be replaced but I am wondering what my options are. I do not want a rebuilt Volvo engine. Is it possible to mate it to a Chevy 4.3? or do I need to rework the transom and just get a complete setup? Thanks, Shawn

    AQ 151 raw water pump seal retainer

    I have a '90 AQ 151 that is leaking from the raw water intake tube at the pump (sucking air and over heating). I found that the flange is there but it is missing the retainer (?) that goes over the rubber seal to hold it in place. It looks like they only come with the pipe. I don't feel like...

    AQ151 nothing to starter

    I recently picked up a 1990 Steigercraft with an AQ151 that started up fine but then today I turned the key and got nothing. The gauges get powered up and I can operate the trim but nothing when I try to start. The batteries are at 12.8 volts. The trim guage does not display properly so I am...

    Who makes the best ignition parts?

    In the past I've used OEM or Sierra caps, points and condensers in my '89 4.3 Cobra but was wondering if there are better parts out there. Mallory Ign has parts available and I was going to try them. Has anyone had any experience with them or any other aftermarket mfg?
