I have a 380 dancer with about 500 hours on 8.1's. They run very well, but I do notice some black exhaust "soot", which accumulates around the above-water exhaust ports. Sometimes at idle they smell like they are running rich, too. Oil testing shows no fuel residue. I'm wondering what other...

Generator produces almost no AC power (8-10VAC) when running at specified 1800 RPM. When engine speed is increased to about 2000 RPM, 108-120 VAC is produced, but frequency is too high (>65 HZ). Does this sound like a diode problem, capacitor problem (there are two in my generator), or a...

Brand new Garmin 7608xsv. Box is missing UPC bar code, as it was sent in for rebate purposes. Purchased for upgrade project, but decided to go with a larger screen. $985 shipped to USA. PayPal only. Thanks.

My 2001 has the factory ice maker that I want to change to the refrigerator. Trying to find the original unit, or at least the updated one, but not sure of the original model number to cross reference. Also, when doing the change, I take it I have to run a 12V feed and fuse to it. Anyone with...

I was looking at a '02 380 DA yesterday and noticed that there was quite a bit of the bilge paint peeling off. Not just at the lower sections that could have some winter freeze/thaw gelcoat failing, but pretty much throughout. Not sure if it is just one of the idiosyncrasies of this one...

I am wondering if anyone has ever repaired the back of the double passenger seat next to the helm bucket seat. The back of the seat is fairly loose and easily bends if someone leans back in it. I am imagining some sort of angle brackets that hold the back to the bottom, but I haven't taken...

I just installed this in my 2002 310 DA and was wondering how to connect to the blower switch at the helm. I understand that I can't have both blowers come on as it would overload the MB1, but I was thinking if I could have one come on, it would be better than not. If anyone knows which wires...

What is the "magic trick", to get the spark plugs in or out?? I did manage to use a universal and a 13/16" socket to remove the first plug, but now I can't get the socket back down the "hole" to get the plug in. I can reach the first (right side) plug from the back to guide it into the hole...

(I posted this question in the 310 sectiion, as well) Can someone give me some insight on how the bulkheads on either side of the engine compartment are constructed? Specificallly the port side. I have the engine exhaust system removed including the shelf which the muffler is attached to...

I have a 2002 310 DA with Vdrive inboard 350 Horizons FWC. It has the factory fresh water flush kits installed. How do you use these properly? They tee into the line after the raw water pump, so I am confused as to whether or not I can close the seacocks when flushing. It seems like if I...

I was wondering what to expect for costs to have my HyTorq 17-20 M-Cup props tuned. One has a small ding on one blade, everything else looks normal. I'm in MA, but willing to travel for recommended technician. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, My "new to me", 2002 310 Sundancer has the following engine serial number OL677287 (Horizon), and when I look up the part number for the spark plugs it's #803990 which relates to a superseded NGK BPR5EFVX (platinum, I think) which was replaced with a NGK TR51X irridium plug. These are...

I am purchasing a 2002 310 which already has a Garmin 4208 chartplotter. I am going to add the Garmin radar to the system, but I am wondering if I need to put a wedge under it. Also, due to a low bridge clearance at my marina, I want to keep it as low as possible (so probably want to mount...
