Guys - bringing an old thread back because I just replaced my Holly with a edelbrock 1409. It works great BUT has the "hard start after sitting for more than a few days" issue like others do. Otherwise, it starts great cold or hot. Don't have to pump it, throttle it 1/4 throttle or nothing. Just...
Guys, I want to swap out my Holley600cfm for an Edelbrock Performer. Ive heard I it's s a pretty straight forward swap. Do I stick with a 600cfm Performer? Any suggestions.
A lot of noise is being created by the fact that Indmar had announced a deal with Ford to start producing their 6.2l engine. Rumors are that Chevy is wanting to get out of the Marine business. Anyone here have info or comments?
Guys- I had this problem last year too but when I start the (5.7l) engine, I have to wait until it warms up to put it into reverse for 5 min or so or it dies. Not that big of deal on a slow day at the ramp but when it's busy....well.
I had the carb and choke adjusted by a good mechanic last...
Since I have had the boat, two seasons now, I have had a chatter or rattle what appears to come from the transmission area. Only while motoring in gear under 1200 rpm or so. Thought is was pretty normal but the more reaserch I do, the more it sounds like I may have to have the damper plate...
I am pretty sure I have a small amount of oil, but none the less some every time I go out, leaking from the transmission side (rear) of my intake manifold. I don't see any oil above the point where the manifold meets the block but definatley some dripping down on the block and trans. It's a...
I have an '06 carbed MP 5.7l. It idles rough and dies when you go to put it into gear which I know being the first time out could be a few things...water in gas, gumed up carb, plugs, etc. I turned up the idle screw to get from 550rmp to 900rmp but no help.
I have a strong feeling however it's...
I am having tread wear issues with my trialer tires (single axle). The trailer is what came with the boat from the dealer and I bought them used 2yrs ago. I believe the tires to be stock as the local dealer sales the same boat/trialer/tire combo as mine still today. Anyway, I have excess wear...
Hey - figured in the downtime I would take the time to do the yearly alignment and gimbal check myself this time (my first time) but am having trouble with the alignment. I had the gimbal bearing replaced last year along with bellows so everything looks good there. The shop that did it last year...
Volvo SXM1 -1.79 2006 3869336 (sn 4202168329)
I've noticed some probable u-joint noise the last time out. As we (wife and I) start the engine, after drive is 1/4-1/2 way down near the beach of course, I hear a slight knocking noise until about 1/2 down or when drive is completley in water...
THANKS TO YOU EXPERIENCED SKIERS!
For those of us (relativlely) older people, I just had to post that I'm a 39 yr old that just got up on the salom ski yestday for the 1st time! I know there are many older people out there who still strap them on and do it with much better skill than I but...
Hey guys. I am need of some DIYwake (pyramid manuf) tower parts and I called them up only to find out the parts I need are 3 months away at best. I know I have seen another company out there selling the same exact tower but can't remember who it is. Can anyone help? I have the prowake model...

It all works awsome. I don't have to ever worry about switches and it charges...
Don-
I had my tube slip out of my VP SX drive last year. The shop I took it to didn't blame it for any water intrustion when I took it there for my winter checkup, they just replaced the tube, (along with the gimbal bearing and bellows). I would like do the fix mentioned on previous threads on...
So all of you installing the universal towers onto boats with rounded hulls...how do you handle the fact that most universal mounts are flat and your hull is rounded. The custom tower manufactures boast this issue as one of the reasons to pay another $1k+ for their tower. I notice some...
