    Trailer brake pad uneven wear

    Have run Kodiak for many years now. Never noticed undo wear on one side or the other. Then again, I don't pay attention to uneven pad wear unless it's severe and need to find the problem Since your wearing on the outside, I'd suggest you check the slider pins for lube. Mine hung up once from...

    Blue Sea ACR with two batteries is not charging

    The ACR will not combine the batteries until charge voltage exceeds 13 volts. The ACR will not combine the batteries if one of them is below 12.3 volts. I suspect your starting battery is on the way out or too deeply discharged to be combined Bear in mind, the outboard is putting out next...

    Fuel filter

    Filters go on the suction side of a (fuel) pump. You want to pull contaminants into a filter, not push them through An in-line rock and stick catcher (filter) should be upstream of the primer bulb and downstream (suction side) of the fuel pump

    Alternator or switch?

    Engine runs perfectly for 30 minutes + then dies with no dash power

    Temperature related failure in ignition circuit, with alarm, that resets itself with time (cool down). Not buying a harness connection problem. Issue with an ignition sensor/module.
