As suggested, I would check and tighten all hose clamps, look for drips, then refill the system. If you need to check further you can go to a large Auto parts store and rent what is called a "cooling system pressure tester" that will pump air into the cooling system. If the guage on the tester...
No actually I have been trying to do business with your store for 24 years going back to when your dealership was dealing in Evinrude / Johnson and OMC . I was sold the wrong part 3 times on 3 occassions after giving the engine serial numbers and applications. One boat was 4 years old (...
Thanks for the info.. I have heard of using the hubs (couplers) to press out the shaft with rods and backing plates, along with a pulley installer - press.
Thanks again for the advice.
I am going to remove the prop shaft coupling on a 1978 SRV 300 twin engine straight inboards. Does anybody have any tricks to press the shaft out of the coupling so the shaft is not damaged? I need to replace the shaft log ( rubber hose that the packing nut mounts into ) it is cracked and needs...
I have a 79 SRV 300 . 3 Blowers located on starboard side, stern. Interior stern panel must be removed. You wil find what is called flange mount blowers installed there. If you replace them use the proper size fuses in the fuse holder located on the trim panel at the stern when you reinstall...

I had a similar problem on a 1979 chevy 350. If you have the original distributor still on the motor the internal flyweights in the dist. may be stuck open or closed preventing the timing from advancing as it should with the rpm increasing and decreasing. If you added a electronic upgrage kit to...
Thanks for the info.. I need to remove the slider since the wood is rotted and the slider needs new rollers. I am going with the marine plwood deck and placing a sheet of Nautolex marine flooring which is the same stuff I am removing . I think this boat was decked over 15+ years ago . It should...
Schooner 45 - I have the same boat and needed to replace the forward hatch. I purchased a piece of lexan around 5/8 thick. Using the original as a template i duplicated the angles on a table saw , then used a router to cut the groove for the hatches metal trim. When done I took a small palm...
When you replaced the cockpit deck did you remove the sliding glass door. My boat needs the decking replaced and it looks as if I need to replace the wood up to the engine hatches in the salon. Any info would help. Thanks.
I have 1979 SRV 300 . My exhaust pipes run flat and parrallel to the water line. They end at the box you show in your photo which is actually above the water line. Under the hull you should see that box indent into the hull. On the gunnel side of the hull you should have a small slotted vent...
