I have a 1999 sea ray 180br 3.0. I looking to switch from my 3 blade 21p to a 4 blade. Anyone with this same boat or a boat with a mercruiser alpha one 3.0 done this? I'm looking for more hole shot speed and planning sooner.

when looking down the crab, what should I be looking for?

If the problem is hot soaking, how would i fix the problem?

Im having the same problem with my 99 br 180. I've read some other forums and they say the crab is leaking internally, And will need a carb rebuild kit. Does anyone know if this sound like the problem and should we get a carb rebuild kit?

I did manage to get that piece off. But i did break it. OOPS. But the marina down the street had one in stock for 3 busks, so i lucked out. Thanks for your help everyone.

thanks guys for the help. i did get a print out of the throttle control. Im going to tackle it tomorrow.

I saw on another site that you have to Remove the disengagement button from the lower part of the throttle lever. then there a nut in there that i have to take off to get the lever off, but i guess i have to put it in gear first. Im going to try it tomorrow. Does is this seem right?
