To be honest, I don’t even remember having this issue. I wouldn’t have remembered it all if you hadn’t resurrected this thread. I don’t know the part number but they made a zillion of these motors and didn’t change much. Probably almost any slave will work.

No, I haven't replaced that light, but it's certainly a good idea. If you figure out a good solution, please let us know how it goes.

I agree. Get your favorite brand. My 400 has the original Raymarine autopilot from 1998 and I've upgraded the chart plotter to a new Garmin unit. It interfaces just fine and works good. If I was starting over I'd likely get a Garmin autopilot just because I think they make good products. But...

I also have used the Garmin GFS-10 sensors connected to a NMEA2K network. It was a very easy project.

Show us some pics of the results!

Update with problem now known. One issue is that I was not understanding the difference between the starter solenoid and the fuel solenoid. I've been focusing on the starter solenoid and that's what I swapped out previously. It wasn't the issue. Tonight I figured out the fuel solenoid part. I...

I'm going to try this as soon as I can get back to the boat. Just not sure where to go after that.

Thanks Frank. I really appreciate the info and I hope to "appreciate" the mechanical 3116 engines soon! I'm just not sure where to start next. I've got a new fuel supply solenoid, switched out the replay and rocker switch from the starboard side (known to be working). Still no clunk when...

Here is an image of the solenoid and the fuse/relay thingy. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GY3jgN2K_eaYP_ddGXpbhTJsnJknNotE/view?usp=sharing

Update. I went out to the boat this morning. When I first pushed the rocker switch to ON, I heard the clunk and the engine started immediately upon pressing the switch to start. Ran for a few minutes with no issue. I turned it off and then it would not clunk again. I tried and tried. No clunking...

I’m not sure exactly what you mean. Have the valves to shut off fuel flow and change which tank I draw from, but I’m not aware of where a valve is just for the primer.

Yeah, you probably should be sleeping! But thanks for your answer. It gave me some ideas on what to search the forum for. In the heat of the moment I can’t recall if I was getting the solenoid clunk. I’ll go back today to check. But I do know I don’t have the box of solenoids - I have the older...

Twin 3116 engines with 1300 hours each. I've never had any issues from them since I've owned them for several years and 300 hours. Today I was running about 1100 rpms on both engines (for about an hour) and suddenly the port engine just died. Won't even attempt a start, but turns over easily...

Actually your engines MIGHT both rotate the same direction and the change of direction is handled by the transmissions. Both methods were used on different configurations. Impeller vane placement doesn’t matter. All of the vanes will end up turning the direction they need to.

After cutting (heavy, medium, or light) you can go straight to polishing with the blue.
