I think I need one too.
Mine mostly reads - - - Sometimes it will read the depth then back to dashes
what does yours do darkjester?
this is my part number 2008 250slx
I had the SAME problem. Drove me nuts.
Same boat as you too
The stainless bracket that bolts to the hatch rests on the top of the actuator when closed. Look on your old actuator, might even see the rub marks. I unbolted the stainless bracket and cut 3/4” or so off of it and reinstalled. Bingo...
I pulled my fuel pressure regulator today to check for paint chips thankfully there was none.
I’m going to continue to use premium gasoline with no ethanol and hope for the best.
Good info here. I have a 2008 6.2L. I am NOT having any issues at the moment but I want to do a little prevention before this happens to me.
I’m going to pull my fuel pressure regulator and see if I have paint flakes.
From what I’ve read it seems that the flakes issue is from the pump...
Mine started with a squeaky belt. After inspection I noticed my shaft walking out. I was able to take the pump out and repair it.
Now I did order a new(rebuilt) pump with the UPDATED c-clip that holds the bearing in. I will install at the end of the season. Mercury has updated this design
I’m making some guide poles for the boat/trailer. Should help with the loading.
Ordered metal and foam covers from eBay, fabbed some brackets myself to hold the aluminum poles. Found some “close” paint for everything
Anybody else added these?
Works then doesn’t work, bang on it reset it then it works next day it doesn’t.
I’m positive it’s the head unit
Can I replace this with the newer CMD6???
Or what can I install and still use my two remotes( in dash and stern of boat)
