    Alpha 1 Gen 2 Water Pump Impeller Replacement

    First time replacing it myself over the weekend--followed several videos and had the manuals next to me the whole time. I'm paranoid and it all seemed to slip back together too easily. How likely is it that the water tube missed the guide tube? I feel like without having to curse or throw out my...

    Suspect my temp gauge is not reading correctly…

    My 5.0 MPI with Alpha1Gen2 typically runs at a hair above 170 when warmed up. Last two times I’ve been out it hasn’t gotten above 135. My first guess is the gauge or sensor is bad—is this an easy troubleshoot/fix? Is it possible the thermostat is stuck open and that’s the correct temp? Second...

    Winterizing 5.0 MPI

    So I’ve watched the YouTube and everyone I watch talks about the “5 blue plugs”. I’ve reached around, flashlight and iPhone front facing camera from every angle I could think of and I can only find the upper and lower plugs at the front of the motor. I have a large blue handle drain valve that...

    2003 SunDeck fuel sending unit

    Hello everyone. We found out (the hard way) that our fuel sending unit isn’t working and the fuel gauge is stuck at 3/4 full. Does anyone know the part number and/or where to get the unit and how hard it is to reach and replace the unit? Appreciate any info you guys can give.

    Navigation light bulb replacement

    Checking our 2003 Sundeck 220 over and found the port bow light out. Grabbed the tools but I have nothing with a philips head that will fit between the cut out and the light to take out the single screw that appears to be holding the whole light together. Looking for suggestions.

    Filling fiberglass holes

    Kind of a two part question here... 1) Looking to remove the carpet snaps on the floor of our 220 Sundeck and fill those holes. It’s quite a few holes (obviously) and I have no prior experience working with fiberglass. 2) A few of our mooring cover snaps are loose around the boat—I need to...

    Hey guys and gals, New-ish to the forum here, been reading and following threads for a bit but looking for some experienced thoughts on getting the boat back on the water this spring. Marina staff did the winterization along with pulling the outdrive, working on the outdrive water pump, and...

    220 Sundeck GPS installation

    Hello All We recently bought our first boat and being handy, I’m hoping to save a little money by installing a Chartplotter/GPS unit myself. The mounting is a no brainer, but I don’t have a clue where to connect the electrical. I’m assuming there are terminal blocks somewhere for all the cockpit...
