Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Tried to take out today and noticed noise after about 40 min out. I was only going about 5MPH. No wake zones to ocean. Boat stalled. Stuck in forward gear. Hard turn over. Played with control a bit and got to neutral. Limped back to port.
Last time I...
Took boat out today
Ran OK at low speed for about 40 minutes. I could hear a change in the noise from the outdrive. Drive got a little louder. Then the boat stalled while in gear. Would crank over, but hard. Boat still in gear. Worked control a bit and got boat to start again and limped back to...
Thanks for the reply. I was leaning toward something with the shift cable. Would like to wait till boat out for the season. I haven't shifted without engine running unless it stalled out in gear. Is it possible to get drive out of gear when engine is off? Like stalled in gear?
Hi All,
I have an interesting issue with my 1987 268 Sundancer that was repowered in 2005 with the 6.2 MPI Horizon engine and a Bravo II outdrive.
2 weeks ago while running in neutral at the dock for about 10 minutes the engine bogged down and died. Tried to restart and it was really...
It's fixed.
I felt something was restricting the motor from turning over freely. Thought shift cable may have slipped the drive into gear. Put outdrive to trailer position to check if I could turn the prop. Prop was not frozen.
Then, while outdrive was up, I tried starting it. It turned...

Was running OK in neutral at dock for about 10 min when it slowed and died. Tried restart and won't crank over like it did before. Now it turns over like a car...
Hi all,
I have Alpha one Gen one replacing exhaust bellows. Original are accordion type. the SELOC manual says it can be replaced with bellows that only attaches to gimbal housing and contacts outdrive when lowered. Gives a part number B78458.
Looking to see if anyone has gone with this newer...
Thanks for the replies. Finished the bellows on Sunday. Not sure if it was me or this job is just a lot of work in a very small area. Tried with exhaust and U-joint bellows attached to gimbal. Could not get U-joint bellows on to bell housing. Took apart and mounted u-joint bellows first to bell...
I am replacing the shift cable on Alpha One Gen One drive. I have the gimbal assemble removed from the boat including the transom plate. There is a small allen set screw on the shift cable slide that I cannot remove. I have ordered the complete kit including the shift cable slide replacement...
Hello and thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. I will check around the carb for the fitting the hose should attach to. Is this hose listed in any diagrams?
