    Official 370 Sundancer thread

    I have a question I hope someone can help me with. last weekend I had the bilge pump alarm go off in the bilge under the salon floor. never had water there before ever. Water was coming through the stringer on the port side. The pump would kick on about every 50 mins. I turned off the water at...

    Official 370 Sundancer thread

    I have too agree with AMFM3. we bought our 97 370 Sundancer 4 yrs ago. it has the Hurth V Drives as well and I love them. The boat is fantastic! We too will keep ours for a long time. unless someone is going bigger I can't believe anyone would sell these awesome boats.

    To the advice from Mark. i changed the wires on my engine and it fixed the problem. i could not get above 3000 rpm and Mark suggested wires. pretty cheap and pretty easy.

    Clarion M303

    I just installed the Clarion M502 unit in my 370. i love the Bluetooth. i was able to match the color coded wires from the old unit to the new one. i had to run a new cable for the remote and enlarge the opening where the old one was. all in all not a bad install though

    Starboard engine not keeping pace

    I am having the same issue with my Starboard engine on my 370 sundancer with 7.4 MPI. i put new plugs in last year. They have about 75 hrs on new plugs. they ran flawlessly until about a week ago. I noticed the Starboard side was down on power. i have changed the fuel filter/separator, but that...

    No Power over 3000 R.P.M on 7.4 M.P.I.

    Changed the fuel filter this weekend. That made no difference. next weekend is plugs and wires since I didn't receive them in time this last week. i did notice more of a vibration than normal and still will not rev above 3000 RPM. so I am hoping plugs and wires will fix the issue. Thanks

    Mark, Is there anyway to figure out which plug or wire is bad? Or am I best off to just replace all of them. where can I purchase wires for Marine 7.4 M.P.I.?

    Mark, You hit it right on with the way it is running. I will look into the plugs and wires this week end. I hope this is the problem, not a very hard (or expensive) repair. Thank you very much!! I really appreciate it! Chuck

    No Power over 3000 R.P.M on 7.4 M.P.I.

    I did not check the pressure at the fuel pump yet but I will. the engine at 3000 did not quit or mis or spit and sputter still sounded fine, it just wouldn't rev up. What are the chances that it is Bad Gas? I had just added 75 gals the day before. the gas is non ethanol 92 octane, the same as I...

    No Power over 3000 R.P.M on 7.4 M.P.I.

    Thank you Mark, i did not change wires when I changed plugs so I may need to do that. my question is though, I could notice nothing different in the sound or the way the engine ran. Just no power above 3000. If it is misfiring will it not spit and sputter a little?

    Water glide, thanks for that info. i changed the plugs in winter of 2011, only have about 100 hrs since. i had no misfiring or rough running or rough idle. It just would not go above 3000 RPM. I have had no problems with it at all until this last weekend. I have put about 20 hrs on this yr...
