Well, I would define "early next week" as Mon or Tues. Its late Tues now and I have yet to receive a call. I called a minute ago, asked to be transferred to the service dept, then got David's voicemail.... Getting annoyed.
So we went to Fl this past week for a mini-vacation and decided to stop by MM to see if they had started yet.... and to look at big boats!
The guy working the service counter was friendly enough. Think his name was David(?). He had a blonde soul patch of a ghoti. He said that the main Service...
Hey guys, I've got a 94 230DA. It has a plug for shore power but its the standard 3 prong "house" style plug. Normally, at home I plug the boat directly into the house with a regular extension cord, no adapters. The plug end on the boat side is male. I want to be able to plug in at a wet slip...
Hey all, just dropped my 230 DA off at Pensacola MM for some engine troubleshooting/work. Figured Id write about my experience with them for others (I was looking for the same kind of info a few weeks ago).
So, today we drove from Biloxi, MS to drop her off through what seemed to be a monsoon...
So Im still tring to figure out why I cant get her to run. I just noticed that the distributor has what looks like a vacuum port. The carb that came on the boat when I got it did not have one. The port on the distributor is not plugged. I just got a replacement rebuild carb and still cant get...
So it turns out, if one of your spark plugs takes a crap, your motor will run like crap.
I just pulled the old plugs and the ceramic came apart one of them. It just crumbled as I was taking it out. Nothing got in the engine and all of them looked good, little bit of carbon but nothing major...
Wow, no one was posting in this thread anymore. Didnt notice new comments. :grin:
I really couldnt tell you. The tool I had to compress the springs really sucked. Last 2 valves up against the firewall were inaccessable. The Jeep was lifted too. I dont really know, it was just a difficult job...
OK here we go again:
('94 Carb'd 305/Alpha 1 Gen II)
So, to recap, I did a whole bunch of maintenance on the motor this past week to get her running for the summer. Oil change/Impeller/Carb came on and off a few times/spark plugs.
Before any maintenance, she wouldnt start. I originally...
Thanks all for all the really quick replies. MY worry is pulling her on the ramp. I have no doubt my Titan could pull a 260 on the raod, its the ramp that Im worries about. (Im 2wd). I would MUCH MUCH MUCH rather go with the 260 but, again, the new truck cost weighs in big time. Thanks for the...
