    Uneven Fuel Burn

    Check to see if both engines get to the maximum RPM. One engine could be working harder than the other, needing more fuel.

    DIY Prop Puller, less than $100

    Quick question? How do you plan on removing the VDrive while in the water? Doesn't the shaft go through the drive and attach to a flange in the front?

    Can you ID this feature in the photo? Is it a flush?

    Yes, that flush kit is for the raw water, (exchangers, coolers, exhaust manifolds, etc.) Note: There are 2 different types - 1: You flush with the engines running, & 2: flush with the engines off. Very important that check what you have.. It looks like you have the ones that flush with the...

    Getting tranmission into drive

    If it's an Alpha 1, it's probably a bad shift cable or has to be adjusted. The shift cable attaches to a bracket that's bolted to the exhaust riser. There is a switch on that bracket that interrupts the ignition, so that the dog-clutch in the outdrive can engage/dis-engage. The same cable also...

    Sundancer 340 port dash drink holder

    You can insert the same cup holders that are everywhere else in the cockpit, in those "holes". I think that they are 4.25". West Marine sells the white plastic ones & stainless steel.

    VacuFlush Question

    I have a small leak near where the water intake hose connects to the foot pedal assembly. Question - How do you remove the plastic foot pedal? Does it just snap right off? I don't want to break it.. Thanks.. (2000 Sundancer 340)..

    2002 Sundancer 340 Batteries and Charging system.

    Also, the generator should charge it's own battery while running (without the charger being turned on).

    I have a similar setup and I replaced my charger last year. The charger has 3 output connections, 1 for both port batteries (house), 1 for the starboard engine battery, and 1 for the generator battery.

    1987 Sundancer 300, engine will crank but won't fire up.

    It could also be the shift interrupt switch, it cuts the voltage to the ignition for a second (while shifting).. Like stated before, you have to test all components, (backwards) for voltage. Start at 1 spark plug wire, then the wire from coil to dist, etc.. If you are not familiar with the...
