It was the GFI. I could not find it at first. It's in the head above the mirror on the BOTTOM side of an overhead. Can't see it unless you duck down and look up. Thanks guys, great help.

Found it. Ran the engine and saw a fair amount of antifreeze running out of the radiator cap. Old cap and apparently the gaskets were worn out or just really dry. New caps seemed to solve the problem. I did check the exhaust for steam or evidence of antifreeze. Thanks all of you. I kept all the...
I have 1990 454's (Gen IV, I think) I am loosing anti freeze on the starboard engine while at the dock (Not running). I inspect the anti freeze and the tank will be down about 1/8 to 1/4. Refill and check it a couple days later and it's down again. I haven't run the engine. I can't see where the...
Where is this alarm? I'd like to disable it. When I started my g en 4 454's this afternoon everything was fine. When I shut them down the alarm on the port engine would not shut off. I checked the start switch but the alarm stayed on. I finally turned the batteries off and the alarm quit. The...
Thanks. Exactly what i have. How about replacing the pipe nipple, which rusted out, and a hose to muffler from nipple to muffler? You loose the high temp but it was not hooked up anyway.
Need parts. It is a 1990 4cyl. which I believe is Nissan motor. Former owner did lousy maint. The zinc at the exhaust on the end of the heat exchanger was not changed. Result was that the fitting that connects the hose to the muffler rusted out and fell off. Who makes the generator and where...
Had the same problem on my '90' 350 dancer. You have 2 duck bills on the pump. Easy to replace. I got a dancer owners guide and the system should be discussed there.
I have a 1990 Sundancer with V-drives. I agree with all the comments. HOWEVER, V-drives can be a real problem when it's time to repack the stuffing boxes. There is generally no room. My boat is in the yard now for some work including the re-pack on the boxes. The yard had to pull the prop shafts...
Have a 1990 350 Sundancer, later called 370. Want to use a through hull transducer. Do these boats have a cored hull. Replaced a through hull fitting and I think I see a layer of plywood.
Thanks
I,m getting a knocking noise when in gear on starboard side. Thought it engine at first but when in in neutral no noise I can increase engine speed in neutral and no noise. I looked at the V-drive and transmission and could neither see nor feel any vibration but could feel and hear the noise...
Thanks, Mike. I looked at the stuffing box today. Strange looking packing nut. Its somewhat a trapazoid and 3" across. I have a wrench that opens 3" but the handle is too long. What do you use?
Need to repack stuffing box on 1990 Sundancer 350 with 7,4's and v-drives. Prop shaft miked at 1.25". Sound right? Any tips? This looks like a nasty job. Thanks.
