HOW DO I TIGHTEN my IMPELLER BELT? Anybody have or know of diagrams I can download that will show the components and belt routing? It's really hard to see the front section of the engine in the engine compartment, so diagrams would be helpful. It's a Bravo 3 Magnum engine/outdrive. Thanks...

Just pulled my thermostat out of my Onan generator. It was rusted as well as the thermostat "compartment". Is my generator completely shot? Can it be repaired? Rebuilt? Can I replace it with a portable generator and use it below decks with the blower on? Thanks in Advance for your help!!

Thanks for the replies, guys - - I definitely need to replace it - - it's the trim hose that wraps around and under the trim cylinder - - I mostly just want to know if I'm gonna have to remove the trim cylinder, or if I can remove and replace it without removing the trim cylinder. Thanks...

Looks like I need to install a new In/Down Trim Hose (starboard side), since mine appears to be leaking (oil). Question is, do I need to remove the trim cylinder to do this? It's a 1990 Sea Ray, 27', mercruiser bravo III. Any suggestions for parts sources and/or part number? Thanks...

Thanks; we'll do the same!!

Thanks; we'll check it out!!

Not yet; still looking; thanks and good luck - - Pete (guitarfish)

Looking for a hinge for the right side door under the sink on my 1990 27 DA . Part number appears to be 521336 - - owner's manual says this is the part number for the door (including hardware?) ~ ~ Probably don't need the door, just the hinge, although the wood where the hinges are attached...

I'm hoping I found it - - it may have been the louvered vent for the blower. There was a gap between the vent and the gelcoat (outside of the boat). Water seems to have been seeping in, then dripping between the outside of the boat and the inner liner of the boat, working it's way down to the...
