    Shift Plate Kit Replacement

    I have not messed with the arm. Some posts I read said "don't touch it" others said to bend it. So I didn't... that and I wasn't sure which way to bend it. It hasn't worked since I got the boat last summer and for the past while I have just disconnected it and let it hang there like in the...

    Shift Plate Kit Replacement

    Location of 'shift interrupt switch' on 3.0liter

    I know its been a while but this is for anyone new out there with the same problem. The shift interrupt switch is on the top of the motor. I has a metal arm that bends when you push the throttle. I believe when you check the timing you actually connect two white wires on the drivers side of the...

    New Starter Moter Bad?

    It WORKING!!!! here is the update: Talked to the guy at the marine store and he told me that if you hear one click when you turn the key then the slave solenoid is bad. He said that if you hear multiple clicks its the battery is low/bad connection. He ended up giving me back my old starter...

    New Starter Moter Bad?

    Ok it is not the battery...autozone says its a good battery (only about a year old) and they even charged it for me...still nothing...so Im down to bad cables (which look fine) and my thoughts are going to back to do you think I got a bad refurbished starter? Just a reminder, I'm getting a...
