    5.0 MPI with power loss, stalling at 3,000+ RPM

    A few weeks ago, we had the marina techs replace the distributor cap, rotor, and plugs. Essentially a tuneup except that we did not replace the plug wires. The cap and rotor were pretty corroded. The tuneup cleared up our problem. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    How much time to you spend at "cocktail speed" vs on plane?

    5.0 MPI with power loss, stalling at 3,000+ RPM

    Hi Greg I purchased a 2002 260DA with the 5.0 MPI B3 about the same time as you. I don't have an answer for you because I'm just learning the boat, too. Long-time sailors but first time power boat owners. I have a similar but not identical situation. Occasionally, when I accelerate out of...

    Thanks, Dennis. That helps tremendously. I am replacing the Clarion speakers with Sony's that drop into the 5" hole.

    260 Sundancer Sea Trial

    How did the sea trial go? I also just purchased a 2002 260DA with a 5.0L. We take delivery in a few days. On our sea trial, we had four adults, a full tank of gas, a full water tank, and an empty holding tank. The boat does not have a gen set but is otherwise loaded. At WOT (Merc spec is...

    Thanks very much for this. I told you the wrong model. We have an echoMAP 74DV but I think it's the same size as yours. Your photo helps tremendously. I think we decided to use a RAM mount to attach it to the windshield strut.

    I'll definitely let you know how we approach this. Do you have a photo of your installation?

    Where did you install your 70dv? I just purchased one for our 260DA but haven't installed it yet. I was thinking one of three places: to the right of the compass, mounted to windshield strut using a RAM mount, or below the steering wheel left of the Raymarine VHF. Carl
