I was going to remove electrical panel and fuse box (one piece) today to replace rectifier. Notice a bolt behind the fuse box that appear to be behind fuse panel. I need to remove the fuse panel to access the fuse box bolt. There are many screw there and hard to find which screws attaches fuse...
my 1989 Merc 5.0L on 24 foot Rinker starts good, idles good, runs good until 3000 rpm. When I open throttle more, rpm just does not change, secondary throttle opens, secondary inlet valve also opens, I see lots of fuel coming out of secondary jets. change all filters, check timing and everything...
My 1989 5.0L mercruiser is not running good after 29 years. Cannot get more than 3000 rpm at wide open throttle. Changed filter/water separator and spark plug and those did not do it. Interesting thing is that it runs good, no misfire, no noise, no smoke. Idles just fine. I do not think it is...
my 2002 Lund pro v with 200 hpdi has gauges for trim, fuel, rpm, speed. I like to add gauges for water temp, voltage, fuel pressures both low and high, 2-cycle oil level, and oil/fuel mixture. Has anyone done this or know how to do it? thanks
I have a 14.5X17 on the merc in my 24 foot Rinker cuddy cabin. I want it to plane quicker and not worried about top speed. should I go one pitch down to 16 or two down to 15? thanks

Drove my boat 15 miles at 3500 rpm, 25 mph, trolled for 3 hours, drove another 5 miles to a new spot and slowed down to 1000 rpm and then I noticed a cluncking sound, it would clunk randomly every 5 to 10 seconds. put it in neutral and still clunked. trimed it up or down and noise would change...
I have an intermittent problem with my 2002 225 hp O/B DI on 1900 Lund Pro-V. Yesterday when I tried to trim the engine it died. Engine runs fine if I do not use trim. I tried it again today and it still does it once a while. It is pretty scary going 40 mph and as soon as you move trim/tab it...
just replaced the triangular coupler and try to use the alignment tool to line up the engine. With front mounts at lowest position, the tool goes in not too easy but not too tough either. Grease marking shows better contact at the top. When I turn the engine 120 degrees, the tool only goes in...
my 1989 5.0L V8 starts good when cold. But, when it is warmed up to about 170 F, it starts very hard. I have to open throttle ALL the way and crank it for about 8-10 seconds before it starts. Whe it starts, it runs sluggish for a few second and then it is fine. I tried to start it with different...
