Everytime I get everything fixed...it's something else. I have a 2000 Sundancer 270 with 4.3 EFI motors, and I thought I finally had all of the bugs worked out. I don't want to give too many details about what parts are new, because that creates assumptions that those parts are not bad. My...

I replaced the trim/limit senders on both of my drives recently. they work great! the limit switches are now adjusted correctly, and so are the trim senders. Here is my issue; my gauges are foggy, so I bought some new ones. they are the old teleflex style with the chrome ring, and it is...

Thanks so much for the suggestions, I really appreciate the help! I just got it fixed. It was the p/u module in the distributor. I read for hours in my manual and on the internet, and could not find anything that was exactly like my situation. I then started trying to go backwards. I...

not ecm. I am at a loss!!

not TPS either. about to switch ecm's.

ok, did some parts swapping; traded the map sensor, iac valve, and oil pressure switch with the starboard engine. both engines unaffected. I have been messing with this thing all day. why can't I ever have an easy problem!!!???

Thanks for the input guys!!!! I live in the middle of nowhere, and the shop I use is very nice, and very cheap, but it takes them forever to get around to these things. I have a 200 mile trip coming up next weekend, and they can't look at it before then. I can use the boat the way it is...

I have a 4.3L EFI engine that will not idle. Actually, it refuses to run at all below about 1200rpm. Whenever the engine drops below 1200 (approx), there is one long beep (same beep heard upon turning the key on initially), and then the engine dies. Above 1200, I have no issues whatsoever...

...after lots of frustration; I figured it out. Wires are rotted where they go through the transom. Duh!

I have a 2000 270DA with the twins. Last year, I replaced all trim senders and limit switches, and everything was working great. I just splashed this year, and neither of my trim gauges will do anything. I double cheched the senders, and they look great. I then replaced the gauges because it...

thanks guys for the replies. I think I am going to give the electirc/hydraulic brakes a shot. I think I can simply add the actuator to my current system. It looks like if I were to change the existing system to either discs or electric, I would spend just as much money. I would be interested...

not to argue, but it is only more complicated if one of the following applies: -it is in a business name -you are writing off depreciation -you are writing off trips for business use -you are writing off fuel for business use (then there are pita equations for averaging or choosing bewtween...

This is speaking from a finance perspective at a dealer (it's what I do!). I would go to the dealer and simply tell them you wish to trade, and do not mention the money down unless they say it is absolutely necessary. You are moving to a cruiser (which will have a head) and therefore if you...

I tow my 270 Sundancer on a 2 axle ez-loader trailer with my 08 duramax cc 4x4. I am so sick of the trailer surge feel when I stop, or take off from a stop. I have read some of the threads on this topic, and am sorry if I am making someone repeat themselves, but I need some advice on types...

I unplugged it on the one that runs, and it still starts, so I unplugged it on the one that does not start, and it still did not start. We are talking about the one on the starboard riser, correct?

Thanks guys for the quick reply! Yes, I tried the throttle advance, but nothing will make the injectors fire while cranking. The coil is not firing either b/c it will not start with ether. It seems as though the computer does not know what is going on, or where the engine is in its cycle...

I am in desperate need of help. I am more frustrated than I have ever been.:huh: My starboard engine will crank over, but will not start. You can see the injectors fire when the key is first turned to the on position, and hear the fuel pump run, but then they do not fire when the switch is...

I am in a bind, and cannot find the correct part number for my manifolds/risers. I have center risers with 1.5" spacers. I know how to find these, but am trying to find out if these are factory, or if it would be possible to make a single piece work. the marina i do business with has 2 sets...

will you be installing a battery isolator? if not, the answer is yes, you will need a two bank charger. really, this is the way to go anyway. with a battery isolator, you could cheap out and use the single bank charger, but you will lose voltage, and the batteries will not fully charge.

I don't know anything about a quicksilver genset, is it a traditional or inverter generator? If it is an inverter, it is possible that it is fine because it could be a modified sine wave. In this case you would need a load, and a true rms voltmeter to know what it was really doing. If it's a...
