    I thought this open hole on the port side of the drive seemed odd. Is there supposed to be something here?

    I noticed a whinny noise when we test drove the boat. My research lead me to do a full overhaul on the fuel pressure pump assembly and fuel pressure regulator. We took her out yesterday and it runs great, but there is still something whinny. With my ear beside the fuel pressure pump I can easily...

    Could someone kindly take a photo of the oil pressure sending unit on their 5.0? I have looked all over the top of my motor and can’t find it. I thought it was supposed to be on the port rear by the distributor?

    Yes I know it’s a GM engine. Just need to know if my standard garden hose will connect directly to the flush port without an adapter or something.

    Understood, just making sure I don’t need anything special to connect the hose. I’m just not familiar with it and European stuff can be different sometimes.

    What does the -E signify? I’ve seen other suffixes as well. Not sure at this time which mine is.
