Does anyone have any SRV 240v emblems that they want to sell? I'm in the process of restoration. Mine are in really poor shape. These are the two emblems located on the rear port and starboard sides. Thanks folks...

The depth finder is what you make it to be.... The all American dollar $$$ or atleast it is an American dollar for now.. I have heard alot of raving review about the new Lowrance HDS-5x 83/200kHz so that's what I went with. A little steep on price ($540.00 through Amazon.com) but has alot of...

I don't know if the layout is the same, but on my 1977 240, the forward beilge pump is under the step going down into the cabin..

I am looking for the black rubber molding that goes around the windshield and side glass. It's black and about 3/4 " wide. This molding goes on the outside of the glass around the outer edge (I'm assuming to help prevent water from getting down to the outer edge of the glass and possible coming...

Well, I finally got my new gasket for the carb and reinstalled. I have also got a fuel pressure gauge for the fuel line. I am running @ 5 - 5.5 psi on fuel. Like I had explained, the fuel pump is brand new and the carb is only 2 years old (probally on has 30-40 hrs on it). Runs like a dream...

Thanks for all the advise gents. Where do I purchase a fuel pressure gauge and where do I install - between the fuel pump and carb?? Secondly, if the pressure is too high, is there an in-line regulator that I can purchase to bring it back down to normal operating pressure or do I have to...

Thanks for you help guys.... I finally found a mechanic that was familiar with the OMC 350's and this is the part that I found on ebay of all places for ony $60.00 new. This is a $180 part online anywhere else, so I really lucked out on this. Works great but now I'm having carb problems I'm...

Help me out here. My '77 240 OMC GM 350 with an Edelbrock 1413 four bbl. carb is acting up again. Took the boat out this morning (air temp 49 degree -brrr) and put it in the water to see if it did the same as yesterday (which it did). Ran the boat about 1 hour with absolutely no problems. Then I...

I know how you feel. Been having the exact same problem. Just tried run the boat today and made it 300 yds and nothing.... Finally got it home and started trouble shooting. I removed my carb cover and tried to start it. No fuel was coming out as I was cranking, so I am now searching for a...

I am in need of a new mechanical fuel pump for my boat. I have a 1977 SVR 240 with a OMC GM 350 engine. There are so may simular types of fuel pumps, and I sure the look has changed since my old one was made. I think that the Sierra 18-7268 may be the replacement. Any help would be great folks.

The engine temp is only running 125 while running. The engine is not experiencing over heating, it is just when I sit for an extended period at idel or shut the engine off, which in turn develops "heat soak". Yes, I could mover the fuel line from mechanical fuel pump to the carb. further away...

Hey Folks. Hopes everyone is enjoying a trouble free year so far.. My good old '77 240 is not enjoying the heat.. I have a GM350 engine w/a edelbrock 4 bbl. carb. The carb does have the 1/2 riser to get it directly away from the engine. I have 2 louver vents; each on has two 3" vent lines...

Randy, My boat is at the marina right now. I'm hoping to pick it up this weekend and replace a AMP gauge I'm waiting to come in through the mail. Once I pick it up and get it back to the house, I will take better pictures for you. Thanks for all the help. Again, you did a great job on you...

Thanks Randy. Looks really good. My problem as you can see from the picture is that my deck is not notched like yours to accept a pulpit. Secondly, the deck of the bow doesn't go all the way to the nose of the boat. There is about 6" where deck slopes down to the nose. That's where I would...

All I can say is torque it down good. I just replaced mine, and when I got back to shore, two of the three bolts came loose. If you use lock tight, use the blue, not the red. Red is for permanant and the blue can be broken loose, just takes a little effort, but it won't come loose...

I have a '77 240 SVX240 with a GM 350. The engine was rebuilt about 1.5 years ago and the carb. was also replaced with a new 4 barrel. The boat has run fine in the past until several month until I took it out on the bay. There was probably 3' swales when we launched and towards the end of the...

Does anyone have for sale or know where I can get a good bow pulpit for a 1977 240 Weekender... I looked into the metal track w/roller at the end, but doesn't seem long enough to stick out over the end and would need a wedge support. I am planing on install a windlass so I need a good pulpit...

Folks, I have a 1977 25' Sea Ray SVX240 w/ GM 350 engine. I would like to know if the instrument gauges sold by Overton's or another major marine store would match up with the old wiring (32 years old). I'm hoping to replace my spedo, tach, oil, water, trim, fuel, hour and volt gauges. Should I...

Hey Folks, I seen alot of discussion on other web pages about the type of oil to use in your engine during a oil change. I have a 1977 25' Sea Ray SVX240; Engine GM 350; Outdrive OMC 800 Sterndrive. Could someone explain to me if I should be using this expensive 25w-40 marine oil, or is a...

Thanks Jitts3. Yea, the unit does hesitate both up and down (I guess motor or connection problems). Looking at the pictures, would this motor be inside the boat where the engine is located or on the outdrive? Are the relays or solenoid the same thing?? Would you by chance have a closer...
