Had the boat hauled out several week ago, when it was put back in the steering wheel just spun loose. Did not turn the rudders. There was also fluid leaking from under the wheel. Do I need to take the wheel off and investigate or does it sound like air is in the system and I need to bleed the...
There is 1 starter battery for both engines. It is connected. I didn't check the volt meter prior to the breaker switching the engine off. Seems like the needle was a little further to the left than the starboard but I am not sure. The engine does not turn over at all now.
I know to get a good answer I need to give a lot of detail. Some info maybe be pertinent some not: This past weekend I fired up the port engine and it ran at idle speed fine, went to the fuel dock and filled up. The tank had a little less than 1/8 of a tank of fuel in it. I left the fuel dock...
Has anyone taken this thing apart? I want to replace the rubber boot and have it re chromed but I need to separate the housing from the gear system. Looking at it, I am not sure how the shaft separates from the gears. I don't want to break it. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks George
Several weeks ago, I took the water hose to the bilge. I was careful not to wet the engines. However, there was alot of water vapor. After I finished cleaning the bilge, the engines fired right up. However, after several minutes, the starboard engine cut off. The breaker had popped off. I reset...
I am installing a Raystar130 GPS to a pole mount. The pole mount bracket hole is not large enough for the plug on the end of the Spur cable to get through. Has anyone had this type issue? How did you resolve? The Raymarine install manual says "don't cut the cables". Thanks for your help, George

Only the starboard tank was contaminated. I ended up pumping out the gas, replacing the fuel filters and having the injectors cleaned. The engine runs well now. I now drive a little further and buy gas from the largest marina on the lake. Less chance of getting "Old Gas" or gas at the bottom of...
Starboard engine runs a little rough at idle gets better as it is throttled. When I engage the transmission (forward or backward) there is no power when throttled. The engine runs extremely rough and at almost WOT doesn't get to 2000 RPMS. Fuel Pump OK (pressure tested), Wires, Cap, Plugs OK...
What is the best way to pump fuel out of a the tank? Is there any part of the fuel line...tank to injectors, that would "contaminate" the fuel? particles, etc...Thanks in advance for your help
I replaced my fuel filters several months ago due to starboard engine running rough. Starboard engine continued to run rough, now will not start. I examined the fuel filters and found the Starboard filter had a blackish cloud in it along with debris that looked like pieces of rusted metal...
