My Kohler 5ecd generator won't crank. I hear the fuel pump priming and a bunch of things clicking and humming, but it won't crank. I then get an "OC" error code. I did a little research and tried some of the obvious tests. I am not hydro locked. I pulled the plugs and they are dry. I have...
I have a pair of 6.2 Fresh water cooled Horizon engines. 340 hours / 7 years old. 2 weeks ago I started to have a rough idle with one engine. The boat ran perfect before I went for a ride, but when I came home I had a very rough idle and needed to shut one engine down. I could get the engine...
My boat hasn't been running for almost a month. My port engine shut off unexpectedly 10 feet from the dock. I determined that I was not getting fuel, but didn't know why. I took it to the local marina for repairs. One week later they told me they found the problem, it was a bad relay. They...

Last Sunday, my generator started and ran for a few seconds and then shut off. I tried to start re-start, but it kept stalling. I appears that it is not getting any fuel. My first thought is that the fuel filter might be clogged or that the fuel pump stopped working. After doing some...
I spent last Friday running a new radar cable up to my Raymarine radome. I was having a difficult time running a snake down from the radar arch to the bilge. I removed the speaker on the radar arch and used a small camera to take a picture to see what was blocking the snake. I wasn't expecting...
