Any past experiences with small marinas or recommendations for studio apartment rentals that have dockage onsite would really be appreciated. We’re going down Nov 15-17 to...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Hopefully my last question. I’m getting ready to install the Delco Voyager EST kit. What do I do with the old thunderbolt V ignition module that we suspect is bad? The instructions only address the parts that came with the kit - distributor, coil, wires, leads. It doesn’t address the old...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Correct still no start. Thunderbolt V, but I replaced the distributor a couple years ago with a Mallory when the old pickup rusted out. Mallory plugged right in. I don’t mind replacing the distributor again. I thought I just needed to replace the ignition module though. No luck finding a used...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Hey John, I replaced my distributor a few years ago with a Mallory Marine Magnetic Pickup mechanical advance distributor. You’re saying that’s not compatible with Delco’s module and the distributor needs replaced again? It was a lot of work last time getting the variable timing set with the...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Thanks! I’ve been lurking these forums for the 6 years I’ve owned the boat. Serial number 0K162953. Left hand bravo motor with drive serial number 0K181744 bravo III. Repairs take long because I live in Central NJ. Boat is my Baltimore condo when I can’t work from home.

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Thanks. I will find a module eventually I’m sure. I have all winter. I was hoping someone had an idea that we hadn’t tried. Often people talk about throttle position sensors - but I think that’s on fuel injected models. I haven’t taken apart the stern drive lube oil reservoir and cleaned that...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    The thunderbolt v ignition control module I have is part # 806959-4 which does not appear to be sold anywhere. Does anyone know if I can use the thunderbolt IV module, or recommend replacing the whole system?

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Thanks for the reply. I have the thunderbolt V and we went through the diagrams twice checking each wire for 5v 12v etc per the manual. The ignition control module external to the distributor is the only component I haven’t replaced now. I replaced the ignition control module inside the...

    1997 7.4 bravo carb no spark

    Hi all. I’m desperate for help with my 1997 sea ray 270 Sundancer, single 7.4 in Baltimore. My father and I have spent 20+ hours over 5 months trying to get it to start. There is power going to the coil, but nothing coming from the coil. We have replaced the coil. We have bypassed the neutral...

    AC Converter Recommendations

    Hey all, my Flyback 20-3 charger in my 1997 270 blew a fuse and isn't working after a new fuse. Is the conversion to the ProNautic straight forward? I.e. the 3 green/white/black wires are still used and it plugs right in? Thanks
