The flex hasn't changed and the surveyor did a moisture check when we bought it and came up as dry. I haven't had a single issue related to bow flex and the boat has been in some very heavy waves (for a lake). I'm going to talk to the broker to see what my options are.

No problem. Thanks for the information.

OK thanks folks. Sounds like I have to either drop the price substantially or drop a lot of money into getting it fixed. I am obviously very disappointed that the surveyor not only missed it but when I pointed it out he said it wasn't a problem.

OK, folks I am hoping you can help. I have a 2000 310 that I am trying to sell. When I bought the boat I had it surveyed. During the survey I noted some flex in the front deck. I pointed it out to the surveyor and he tested it for moisture and said that it was fine. I have used the boat for...

I need the Sea Ray website from 2003 because that is all I can afford.

Well I didn't know this either. I always assumed that boats with the separate controls had v-drives.

I ran out of time yesterday. If it could be plugs I wanted to bring a set with me. When I go to the boat today I will check out the coil and plugs.

I got it out, rebuilt and back in. Sadly the motor will still not fire. Back on the subject of the fuel pump though. I hooked up a fuel pressure gauge to the new rail and I am getting a solid 30PSI that holds for a few minutes. The port engine takes several hits of the rocker to get that high...

So I have been having an issue with my starboard engine for a week or so now. I tracked down a fuel pressure gauge yesterday and tested the pressure in the fuel rail on that engine. It never blipped off zero so I swapped out the guts of the cool fuel unit over the last day. Now I am getting a...

If you ever have to replace the Mercruiser cool gas module on the bottom of the engine , just sell the boat or set it on fire. Five hours and I managed to get two nuts off today.

I found it.

I am still having issues with my starboard engine. It has been intermittently running (poorly) but now it won't even fire. I changed the fuel filters and the fuel came out cloudy. Now I want to make sure that I am actually getting fuel pressure to the fuel rail. Supposedly there is a shrader...

I have the FLIR One. I'll have to take it with me this weekend and do an after action.

That will buff right out

I will never go back to I/Os

It is an MPI. It seems to be back running but I think I will add an IAC to my spare parts kit.

With the shifter out of neutral the engine will not crank.

So I went to to the boat today and of course the engine fired right up... When I turn the switch on I could hear the fuel pump spin up but the starboard pump was running at a much higher pitch leading me to believe that it might be starved for fuel. when it first started up it didn't run long...

Thanks for the tips.

I know how difficult these things are to diagnose over the internet but I am just looking for directions that I might look. I took the boat over to get gas this weekend. The boat ran fine both on plane and at displacement speeds. I took about 15 minutes to get there however, after fueling, my...
