    Hard starting after drifting with warm engine, Volvo Penta 4.3, V6-200-J (2017), A699123, VPGAS063873, EFI fresh water cooled, SX outdrive

    Hi all- Boat starts on first crank when cold and idles smoothly. However, if we shut down the motor and drift for a while or dock for lunch, the boat takes a lot of cranks to restart. Is this normal? This has EFI electronic fuel injection, so the only option is to turn the key, then release for...

    Volvo penta steering ram #21910902 overhaul

    Pardon me for responding to this old post but I have a follow up question for you. I have the same part code and it's leaking at the large cylinder under the P in PENTA (left side). Did you have any fluid seep in that location? From time to time I will manually push the prop (with the engine...

    Leaking power steering actuator

    My actuator has a leak on the larger lower cylinder (outer seal below the letter P in PENTA). Does anyone else have seepage or a leak there? How much is tolerable? My fluid was at the bottom of the dipstick fill range. I often manually push the out drive to one side when backing into the garage...

    Help wiring Bennett Auto trim pro and module into existing boat wiring for complete newb

    Yep, manual says to connect orange to main helm power. It's also not clear on fuses, though they appear in the diagram. Also spoke to MJ. He said that they assume most boats have "switchable" helm power with on/off switch or battery cutoff switch. My boat has neither so I would have no way to...

    Volvo Penta SX power steering actuator fluid leak from large cylinder

    I have noticed a leak from the large cylinder (left seal under the 'P' in PENTA) on my 2017 power steering actuator. It is VP part# 21910902 Steering Cylinder SKU: VOL-21910902. Online research indicates the part is non-serviceable. There are after-market seal kits and rebuild services, but they...

    Help wiring Bennett Auto trim pro and module into existing boat wiring for complete newb

    Update for anyone tackling this. I initially wired this up to main power and discovered there is no on/off integrated switch. As soon as I connected the battery, the system would light up and remain activated. I called Bennett and they said that the ATP controller is designed to work off of...

    Help wiring Bennett Auto trim pro and module into existing boat wiring for complete newb

    OK thanks. Let's hope they've improved the design of the ATP to last a bit longer. I'm trying to use the electric Bolt actuators as I didn't want to run hydraulics. Since the boat lives out of the water on a trailer, I'm hoping the seals on the electric actuators will last as long as the boat. I...

    Help wiring Bennett Auto trim pro and module into existing boat wiring for complete newb

    I'm attempting to install Bennett electric trim tabs (Bolt) with Auto trim pro controls and module. I'm new to boat wiring, so bear with me. I'm trying to figure out the cleanest way to connect to existing wiring (2017 Stingray 198ls). I've decided to mount the module above the battery on the...

    Removing impeller

    Having done this job today, I can safely say that a bolt by itself will be very hard to pull out the impeller by hand. I would not have been strong enough to pull it free without the leverage of the center bolt. I tried pulling a fully inserted bolt and could not make the impeller budge. The...

    Removing impeller

    A bolt will move it about 3/8" on the spindle. Whether it slides off the rest of the way easily will depend on if the previous installer greased the star shaft and the general level of corrosion in your environment. (Many installers will refuse to use any grease on the shaft because of the risk...

    Removing impeller

    Update: This is still an issue. Went to the dealership with engine serial A699123 to confirm puller part for impeller kit 2170045 (impeller inside kit marked 2170043 not sold separately). Official Volvo puller specified is part 3843948. IT DOES NOT FIT, TOO SMALL!!! We tried all three Volvo...
