slow down there's good people in this group. If you like it after water test and survey then ask to have it hauled or maybe make and offer conditional on having it hauled/inspected. While typically this is a buyers expense play dumb and see what happens. if the seller hasn't had a lot of...

another perfect use for lighten up Francis...

i bought a seal and bearing cup driver set from Harbor Freight worked great had an assortment of seal and bearing cup drivers. look at parts diagram in this link there is a serial number split for one seal vs two- part #5. Would only assume that if the later siungel seal worked for all they...

yeah the ones in the pic of the kit match what I found on my phone from when I rebuilt the carb in 2023. so should be good. I can only assume Holley uses unpublished numbers or agrees to only sell those parts to VP? In the end the VP kit was $50-60 more than a aftermarket one so just paid it...

they dont even hold a pint, so yes you are correct that it wont take much to pass chit

Thanks, for resharing the list, issue with this one -its not in that list, thats where I got stumped the first time, and paid too much for an OEM kit as even Mikes carb said one of his kits would "probably" fit. airhorn numbers are 3858330 75006-1 2631 Closest I can find on the list are 75009...

I need bowl and metering block gaskets for my friends holley 2 bbl on his 4.3 VP. is this the correct gasket set https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/carburetors/carburetor_components/carburetor_gaskets/parts/108-200 It says 4150 gaskets doesntmetion 2300, but if you buy the gaskets...

I did the same with the fuel out of my 65 pontiac. This was rust mostly but had a 60 year old fuel tank and the car has sat for years. Sucked it out , let it settle and used a paint filter to recover most of the gas. Since this was 93 octane for the higher compression engine I burned it back in...

Dont expect the filter separator to get all of it out you will be sending chit to your carbs. Been through this on my friends boat bogging rebuilt the carb, that made it through a season and a half before there was an issue again. When I did the carb the first time and dumped the filter in a jar...

I don't think it should go slow then pick up speed. You may have two issues going on. Kenny will know better than I but just reading this thread - if you like the boat and want to keep it, you may be better off just replacing with a newer pump, do the hoses and cylinders. You can probably find...

we have all been there. A few years back my then 13 or 14 year old was taking jetski out with her friend, one of first times she was out by herself. There were a lot of boats out this day, so I went out in the boat and from a distance just kept an eye out. Went over a hard wave and engine cuts...

on my 5.0 and 4.3s the sender and oil pressure switch(2wires- for the electric fuel pump) are in a T above the oil filter housing on block, the alarm is a seperate switch with one wire on the block just next to dist.

if it is the pre 2015 ish chevy based 6.2 the oil pressure switch will be by the distributor and as Chris stated single wire ground it and you should hear the alarm- not a bad idea to test

25W-40 quicksilver or equivalent. Not to turn this into an oil thread - you just dont want 5w-30 or any of the thinner oils typical of modern automotive use. Given you are not getting an alarm- I would measure the OP with a mechanical gauge to vet the dash gauge. Would not be the first time a...

Yes for leak detection UV dyes can be a life saver. I got a cheap UV light off amazon and different dyes for AF and Oil, found some leaks more easily than I would have, but you have to clean it all up with brake fluid firts. I would stand on the drive or disconnect the trim rams to see if its a...

yes green marine coolant is the same thing as AF + distilled water. Any automotive green antifreeze will work fine. Might be worth testing before you just drain it. May have been changed

yes it can especially if the thermostat stays open. Take it out and get it good and hot for a long run. if it is cracked the oil level will rise, if not it should help cook it off. May need and oil change or two and burn it off by pushing the throttle forward

3m makes an adhesive remover for this, dont recall the part number or name. There are several ones made by others as well. Google it and you will get a bunch of threads and options like below https://store.marinebeam.com/un-hesive-3m-5200-sealant-and-adhesive-remover/

A lot of the recomendations here are to take off the shift assist- I think @Bt Doctur has seen issues with it . My try to disco it and test. I still have mine on my 04 gen 2 never gave me an issue and shift beatifully so left it alone.

you cant use enough 5200 for something like this. Yes you want it coming out both sides and filling the hole in the hull. On my sea ray you can see 5200 squeezed out on the inside of fasteners like this. My buddy lost his glastron due to the factory screwing a swim ladder at the water line...
