    Question about an alpha 1 gen 2 outdrive

    I have a mercruiser 3.0 with and alpha 1 gen 2 out drive. I hit a rock last year really well and I thought it was just the lower unit that was bad so I found a used one because I couldn't afford a new one. I replaced it and took it out and come to find out it's the whole outdrive that's toast...

    Throttle and shift cable for mercruiser

    Yes I know how it works. But it only cuts the engine going from forward to neutral. Reverse to neutral it doesn't. I could see if there were some major bends in the cable but there are none. Now if I go really fast from forward to reverse it still trips but it's quick enough that the engine...

    Throttle and shift cable for mercruiser

    So I just looked and it's run right, no major bends in it. I don't get it. What if I just disconnect the safety, I know it's there for a reason but I'm stumped

    Mercruiser 3.0 throttle cable and upper shift cable

    So last year I put a new to me motor (mercruiser 3.0 LX) in my boat as the block was cracked. I replaced all bellows boots cables gimbal everything. Now when I shift from reverse to neutral or forward the boat stalls, unless I shift really fast and I know that not good for it. What I'm wondering...

    Throttle and shift cable for mercruiser

    I replaced that lower shift cable and all the bellow boots that's why I'm thinking it has to be in the upper part.

    3.0 mercruiser running rough

    I just did a motor swap on my 94 Bayliner rendezvous with a 3.0 mercruiser. It's been running great the past week or two since doing the swap until today. At full throttle it started running a little rough the rpms would dip a little now and again. Then I had to let my dog to go to the bathroom...

    3.0 mercruiser not shifting to neutral or reverse

    So I'm almost done with a full motor swap on a 1994 Bayliner Rendezvous with a 3.0 LX. I replaced all bellows and lower shift cable. Figured I'd do it since everything was off anyway. I just put the outdrive on, and I put the shifter to forward like every YouTube video I've watched says. And now...

    3.0 front mount adjustment

    I have a 94 Bayliner rendezvous with a 3.0 mercruiser in it. I just did a total motor swap and I am trying to align the motor. I finally got all the nuts loose and the motor need to go down in the back. I have it all the way down and it still needs to go further. Am I missing something or did I...

    1994 Bayliner rendezvous wiring

    Ok so I'm doing a total engine swap on a 94 rendezvous and I'm looking for a wiring diagram for the whole boat. Anyone know where I could find it? It's got a mercruiser 3.0 and it's the same motor going in just it was used for a different purpose so the wiring is a little different. Any help...

    Power steering delete or not

    So I have a 94 rendezvous and the 3.0 that was in it has a cracked block so I got a used 3.0 to go in it. I pulled the old motor out already and the new one has power steering and my old one didn't. What's easier to just take out the power steering or install everything for the power steering...

    1994 Bayliner rendezvous no power

    So I just bought a 94 Bayliner rendezvous with a 3.0 mercruiser. I had it out on the water a week ago and it was running fine, then all of a sudden my electronic alarms started going off even though all gauges looked fine. I opened up the engine compartment and my belt had jumped off. When I...
