Pretty sure. It moves freely when not attached to shift bracket.

Will look into that thanks

Ok. Just wondering, because it didn't do it before.

Mornin' Guys and Gals I just repaced all bellows and lower shift cable on a1996 Alph1 Gen 2. I did all the adjustments as described in the shop manual, and the shifter seems stiff. Both cables move freely when not attached to the bracket, but when connected and adjusted correctly, the movement...

Ok. Thx. Didn't know it had an electric pump. Wonder if this is an original motor in this boat. Serial #F769949. Owner says boat is a 1996

Hey, sorry. I didn't see this. Not sure what size. Was just the biggest one I had. Ken

I'm referring to the aluminum cylinder with the SAE sticker on it. Ken

Could some tell me what this is, pls. Goes from fuel pump to carb. 1996 4.3lt carb

It did backfire throught the carbs when I pushed the handle all the way down. Ken

Will doo. Thx Ken

Are we thinkin' head gasket? Ken

I used starter fluid to see if it would fire. It did not. At any rate, the spray smells like starter fluid. I'll try again later.

Hey guys and Gals, My buddy says this boat was running pulling tubers. Shut it off and to load kids. Hard restart, then died shortly after. Towed back to dock. Timing chain seems good. Crank moves about 3 degrees while turning crank by hand before rotor moves Have fuel....seen squirt into...

Yep. Backed it out and it dropped into the bilge. Adapter and the oil filter plate. Thanks, Ken

Got it guys. Thanks for all your input!

I ran the engine to operating temp before attempting to remove the filter. I have removed many filters in the past and have not encountered one this stuck on. Would be nice if it was that simple. Ken

I read that is an option. Your the first person to suggest this. Is this a thing? This is not my boat and I don't want to damage anything. Does that nipple that the filter threads onto back out of there?

Thanks for you response. I was attempting that, but the holes are on angle or bevel, and won't accept the pins, not flat like the OE filter. Ken

Havent tried that one yet. Not sure what to grab. The outer shell, which there isn't very much left, will just rip. The rest of it is firmly attached to the block. I'll see if I can get ahold of something. Thx, Ken

Was not corrosion. Was that mercuiser silicone stuff, i believe. Ken
