    Volvo Penta 4.3 GL Water In Cylinders After Running

    He turned off the boat when the alarm sounded and got towed to the dock by another boat. The impeller was completely shredded so it would have climbed fairly quickly in temperature. He's had it out on the water before from what he told me and had no issues. Then a few months ago he took it out...

    Volvo Penta 4.3 GL Water In Cylinders After Running

    It was winterized by a shop and all the water was drained out, I don't see how that could be possible but I will do so. I did remove the risers and you can see that the gasket was leaking water in. It's one of those paper gaskets not the metal ones.

    Volvo Penta 4.3 GL Water In Cylinders After Running

    Hi everyone, just looking for some insight as to what could cause water in cylinders after running an engine. I ran the engine on the hose for about 4/5 minutes and turned it off, then turned off the water. I went to go start it again and this time it didn't start and pulled all the plugs and...

    Will 1.68 DPSM work for a VP 5.0/5.7 Engine?

    I'm needing a replacement outdrive for my VP 5.7 and I'm curious if this 1.68 ratio will work with my engine properly. It was paired with a VP 7.4 Gi prior.

    Kohler 5E Generator shutting off after 3-5 minutes of operation

    Thanks, according to the diagram my issue is not present. When I start the generator it turns on and runs for some time and I am also able to turn it off with the stop switch.

    Kohler 5E Generator shutting off after 3-5 minutes of operation

    Figured out the issue with why the water was not coming out. It was the coupler behind the water pump itself. Completely disintegrated... Now it's changed out but I still have issues. Now my generator won't even stay on for more than 10-15 seconds the last time it shut down after the 2-3 min...

    Radio throwing ground amp code

    I have a Chaparral with a clarion head unit that is throwing an amp ground code. It blasts music loud for a few seconds and shuts off. Where does the ground go for the radio? I don’t have a separate amp it’s built into the radio.

    Good deal thanks! That should be my issue as I don't have any power or clicking even at the trim tab motor!

    Kohler 5E Generator shutting off after 3-5 minutes of operation

    I did not see any LEDs lighted or change. I did not check it. I will have to see which exhaust port it should be shooting water out of. You are talking about a thru hull exhaust port it should be spilling hot water through correct?

    Searay 260 Sundancer Trim Tabs not working!

    They are electric over hydraulic. I'm fairly certain they are Bennett trim tabs.

    Kohler 5E Generator shutting off after 3-5 minutes of operation

    My generator keeps shutting down on my 260 Sundancer after a few minutes of operation. I've had the carburetor rebuilt and set. My sparkplugs, fuel filter, fuel lines have been flushed and water pump impeller has been changed and the previous one did not have any broken vanes at all. I have...

    Searay 260 Sundancer Trim Tabs not working!

    Neither side have any operation. Pressing both of the buttons to lower/raise the trim tabs and there is no audible noise from the motor. Is there just a fuse that typically blows or a relay gone bad?

    Sea Ray Kolher 5E Generator Not Getting Fuel

    Fuel line to the carburetor has been disconnected to see if there is fuel pumping when generator is turned over and it sprays fuel. I was able to start the generator and keep it running for 10-15 seconds before I stopped adding starting fluid. Both spark plugs were dry and did not smell like...

    Mercruiser Alpha One Gen 2 Leaking Gear Lube from Intake + Not engaging in gear fully after lower shift cable replaced.

    I see, it's not that seal that sits underneath it?

    Mercruiser Alpha One Gen 2 Leaking Gear Lube from Intake + Not engaging in gear fully after lower shift cable replaced.

    That’s also another thing I was not clear on. I did not put it in full forward but I did put it 3/4 forward and no locking. Do I need to put in full forward and push push in the cable when it is not attached?

    Mercruiser Alpha One Gen 2 Leaking Gear Lube from Intake + Not engaging in gear fully after lower shift cable replaced.

    I am having an issue with my alpha one gen 2 where I am leaking gear lube from the lower water intake. Another issue is when I go to do the shift cable adjustment as per the manual I cannot get the prop to lock fully when the shifter is in neutral and lower shift cable is pushed in all the way...
