Thanks ... that is indeed the problem ... the other recommendation I heard was to get riser blocks to raise the angle from the other end.

Engines have 650 hours. Mechanically and cosmetically the boat is very nice except for this valve problem.

Yes they are fresh water cooled.

Hi all. Need some advise from more experienced boaters than me. Have a 1996 330 DA with 7.4s (gas, carburated) in great shape EXCEPT the port engine ingested some H2O and the four inboard cylinders are at 90psi while the four outboard cylinders are at 130. Mechanics are telling me I need new...

No ... the existing regulator (behind the hull panel) failed closed.

My pressure regulator is shot. Bought a new one at West Marine. Can't remove the old one (inside a hull compartment starboard rear cockpit) and cannot remove panel it is mounted to. Access panel on hull side of regulator but don't want to disconnect things blind. Help!

Agree and have same problem - pressure regulator needs replaced - bought replacement but cannot figure out how to install - cannot get access to rear of panel and access port next to hull is worthless - how do i remove the panel the regulator is mounted to? 1996 330 SD.

My microwave is dead. Does anyone know where to get a replacement (other than Sea Ray)? Looking for a microwave/convecgtion oven that fits in the existing space. If not can anyone advise on how they modified the space for a bigger unit? Thanks.

There is no cover ... just the glass cooktop ... yes the breaker is on but power is not the issue ... just cant physically rotate the knobs from off to on ... I will try pulling them off and putting a piece of rubber in the stem ... they may be too close to the top to push down ... thanks all.

Just mounted mine where the old TV was ... got an articulating bracket at Best Buy, mounted it on the forward bulkhead (thru bolted to the portside hanging locker) ... works great and room for a blu ray palyer underneath ... sorry can't help with aft bulkhead though ...

Ok ... dumbest question ever I think ... we have a '96 330 with a Kenyon glass cooktop ... 2 burners ... 2 knobs ... AND we can't turn on the knobs! Is there a trick to this? We tried pulling up and turning ... pushing down and turning .. etc. Help!

Sorry I should have been more specific ... he changed out the seawater pump, not just the impeller ... the next thing I would check is the heat exchanger being PARTIALLY blocked ... works ok at cruising speed but not enough cooling at either low pressure (idling) or wide open throttle.

Had the same problem on my 1996 ... dealer's mechanic changed out the water pump and problem was solved.

I have recently purchased a 1996 330. It is in very nice shape, however both windows leak into the cockpit at the very rear of the window on each side. Also I have a damp locker in the cabin - starboard side toward the rear. I think the starboard window leak is making its way inside. Any...

We have noticed our curtains and upholstery are becoming more stained over time and more difficult to clean. any general info would be appreciated from folks who have a) done their ownr e-upholstery and b) paid to have it done ie: how much? thanks.
