Starter for Marine...
Scott i like how you take me literally :). I know its not a red starter that its just paint.
you could be right that its its not savable but I would still like to know how to find rebuild kits. if not for this starter then one in the future. its good to know how to source rebuild kits and how...
one of the things on my new to me boat was the starter was dead. you could bang it a couple times and SOMEtimes it would work but most of the time we got nothing. the bilge was submerged in water so i'm sure the starter was toasted because of that.
it's the original "red" starter and i would...
Yeah that's kind of the direction. I was leaning with the manifolds and risers being rusted out. I do have a strong suspicion that the previous owner took this boat into salt water and did not flush it appropriately like you're supposed to
This boat only has a little over 400 hours but the...
Doing a bunch of maintenance on my new to me boat
2007 Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI (2007 Cobalt 212)
This started out with removing the exhaust pipe and riser so that I could have easy access to the steering actuator to remove and rebuild and three out of the four bolts on the riser snapped, clean and...
I I think my terminology is incorrect. When I said ring terminal I meant the large clamp terminal you see in the picture... Just like on a car or a truck battery my boat has a large clamp terminal on the battery post and that wire goes to the starter.
So I'm trying to figure out what other...
So I wanted to install a second battery with a perko switch.
I purchased a second battery, battery tray, two new 24-in battery cables, One new 24-in ground cable, and the perco switch
All three new cables have the 3/8 lug ends.
Well I want to go install today and on my current installation...
really?
i was told differently, that the purple/white wire was grounded to an engine or battery ground to set the thunderbolt V module into base timing mode.
this document also mentions that. Am i misunderstanding or misinterpreting something...
this area circled in red is where my wire is and the purple wire circled in yellow was my purple timing wire with a rubber cap inside it.
if you dont have that wire then you probably have thunderbolt IV in which case you dont have to put anything in base timing mode you just set your timing to...
Yes from my understanding you take the purple wire or purple wire with a white stripe that's right there near the carburetor I think it has a black cap in. You ground that wire and then you set your base timing at idle. Once it is set then you take the ground out of the purple wire then use your...
when i had this issue, it turned out to be the input shaft seal assembly that sits under the water pump. Gear lube leaked out of the water intake holes on the outdrive.

Finally got an engine cover that I was happy with.. I was really hoping that it would have the right spark plug spec on it for MR43LTS because it says 350 Magnum on it.. but unfortunately it still says MR43T.
I wanted it to be as correct as possible so that if I decide to sell this boat in the...
i bought the boat second hand so ill have to see why they changed it. Is this how boats from the 90s are from the factory? i know the boat had a factory CD player back in the day just not sure how it was wired. if it was wired the way it is now or if it was wired the way you all are suggesting...
I wasnt using a shop tachometer. We were just using an older analog snap on adjustable timing light and the tach on the dash.
to be honest i'm pretty sure the tach on the dash was closer to 3200 rpms and given that those are most likely inaccurate it was probably really closer to 2800-3000 rpms...

previous owner cut out the buzzer for the audio warning system. I found the cut wires under the dash and soldered in new bullet connector leads in the new quicksilver audio warning system kit i got.
audio warning system works perfectly fine now, turn Key on 1st stop, warning...
