Need to have full history report printed to confirm, but you may have a failing demand sensor OR actuator. Both should be under warranty still.

Really need to be able to monitor TPS position, Spark Advance "called for" and IAC Duty Cycle (and of course test the IAC) to determine best course of action.

A sticking IAC can actually cause...

They're both listed as the GATEWAY can communicate with virtually ANY NMEA-2000 equipped display (Garmin, Raymarine, Select Humminbird, etc).

VesselView LINK Module works only with the proprietary...

They can be used together- but Quickstor ONLY when storing (really not meant for "everyday use").

WHICH "New V8" are you getting for $17900? :eek:

Hard to see in that little thumbnail image... but it "looks" like the aluminum register is fractured (possibly not the sleeve). Either way, that's a block or full powerhead.

Biggest problem with that is that you're significantly over-dosing the fuel with stabilizing agents. This can actually cause filter staining/restriction, and I suspect from a recent case I've seen...

Please triple-check to make sure that your j-box is wired to the 14-pin engine wiring harness (and not to a BLUE data cable). Blue cable will not carry ANY Analog gauge signals.

Glad to do it.

Hmmmnnn. Gasket orientation and impeller blades folded in correct direction (with no GREASE in the water pump) would be my go-to's.

And the battery?

Hopefully, Fingers-Crossed, they also installed the required Alternator Bushing Kit. The replacement flywheel is solid, requiring that vibration dampening take place on the alternator brackets (in...

The allen-head capscrews are on the side with the stainless cap. This is where most pumps would leak if it's the pump itself.

You've got 3 primary serviceable component areas:

WATER PUMP (impeller, plate, gaskets, housing, face seal, etc)

Thermostat

Poppet Valve

Your listed water pressure makes me suspect it's...

BEST Practice:

If a consumer is noticing this occurring, collect the bottle(s), and the receipts (if within 365 days of purchase) with the boat to an Authorized Mercury Dealer.

The dealer can...

You're wasting your time with that. I'd wager a guess that 50% of the boats there have a battery that meets the MINIMUM SPECIFICATION FOR THE ENGINE (alone). And they'll rig an extra 30 amps of...

Possibly. When you say it "had some fuel" are we talking liquid that spewed out or vapor?

VAPOR is normal. Expelled liquid streams are not.

A good consistent flow is more important than pressure. Perhaps a deep basin you can fill with water and submerge the entire gearcase would be a better option for you.

On the oil pump, if you...

ADD NEAR TOP OF LIST: OHMS TEST ALL PLUG WIRES (including while flexing wire). All should be very close resistance and remain relatively constant while flexing them.

Not sure how the oil caused this, but hey, let's learn something new!

Please take a moment to review the Announcements at the top of the Forum, and be sure to provide the Required Info (serial...

Joe... you're a funny guy. Guess I learned something new today!

Guys and Gals- there are a few things many aren't factoring in with their choice of oil. I'm not doubting that there has been...

Hey... we can only put the information out there for you... can't do much more than that. Tens of thousands of these injectors cross my bench... I share what works well and what doesn't, folks...

Gotta love it. FINALLY one that was "just a fuse" (had a guy that thought everything that ever happened was "probably just a fuse").

A complete Sync-n-Link procedure must be done, as outlined in the "Engine Synchronization and Adjustment" section of the Service Manual.

Moving your post to the 2.5L Forum for you... please be...

Moving this thread to the 3L Forum for you.

Presume that you are referring to the Manual Relief Valve for the TRIM?

If so, the e-clip should be removed, and then completely remove the valve to...
