    4 barrel throttle bracket?

    The old 2 barrel on my 5.7 block was shot so instead of a rebuild i opted to just get a new 4 barrel carb. I had a 4 barrel intake sitting around so I figured, why not? Only thing is I cant use the old 2 barrel throttle bracket with the new carb. The new carb is a marine Qjet and I cant find a...

    Drain ports on block are clogged.

    I have a 350 block and the bottom drain ports are clogged. I tried sticking a piece of wire up in there to unclog them to no avail. They look like they are threaded on to the block. Before I try and do damage, can I just unscrew them from the block and try and open them up? Is there another...

    87 Mercruiser 5.7 3/4 power problem.

    I have an 87 Wellcraft with a 5.7 mercruiser and have a power problem. When I throttle up it very smooth and there is no problem till I get about 3/4 power and then it seems to lag and stumble. It doesn't die when it does this... but it does seem like it pops and stutters. When I continue to...

    How to tell position of outdrive?

    This may sound like a really dumb question... Now that I got my fuse and my trim works, I'm wondering how to tell the position of the outdrive since I have no trim gauge. When I initially launched the boat, I jumped the solenoids to put (what I think) the trim in the down position. Now that the...

    Alpha one drive wont trim up or down.

    I have an 87 Wellcraft CC and the alpha one drive (New boat to me) will not trim up or down. Any button I hit on the throttle will not engage the drive. I have used a jumper to jump between 12v and blue or green wire on the solenoid and the drive will raise and lower. I'm really good with...

    87 Wellcraft 210 Classic looking to update the gauges...

    And I cant find anything. To make matters worse since it is a complete block for the panel, it looks like I would have to cut all wires and rewire new gauges. Anyone done this before or has a lead on a new OEM gauge stack? Thanks!!
