    One engine starts fine the other doesnt but with a twist

    probably a few years old. I bought the boat 2 years ago and they were in it. No, but on my list to do. They do have 12.6 or 7 volts each so I think they are ok, but... two starboar two port. Gen runs on one set, but I dont know which one at the moment. Port motor starts with starboard set...

    One engine starts fine the other doesnt but with a twist

    Pulled all the cables, cleaned and ohmed and they are all good. It seems to be a bad connection somewhere between where the button on the dash is and the battery connection. And there lies the problem. The negative cables go right to a ground bar right on the bulkhead in the engine...

    is this normal for an IAC

    Are you saying that these with the springs are auto not marine? I think I just read that on some of the reviews on amazon also.

    is this normal for an IAC

    So I have been having issues with my starboard engine stalling after idling for an extended time, so I was going to change the IACs on both engines. Got the new ones (which suck, another story) and found that one of the existing ones was missing part of the plunger, the part with the spring. Are...

    Weird stalls and wont idle, then zoom

    Ive swapped the IAC with the other motor and it didnt follow it. If it was a ground, then I wouldnt think it would be acting like it is. It would work or not work. I will look around and see though. What grounds on a motor would cause that I wonder.

    Weird stalls and wont idle, then zoom

    Hi all. So, my searay 300 with twin 350mag mpi horizons, starboard motor is giving me some weird problems. A month or so ago, it would start up, run for what ever amount of time, then I would shut if off to eat, swim or whatever. Then start it up, it would idle fine, usually coming out of a...

    Looks like the solenoid has a fuse also. Might want to check that also. Thanks for the input.

    water backing up into engine from outdrive?? help

    i replace plug also. they dry rot and break off. and they are cheap, why not. they are pretty easy to get out. easy out doesnt work. use flat head screwdriver. heat up with heat gun and push into plug, then turn out.

    water backing up into engine from outdrive?? help

    i really dont even have to pull the drain plug now. i use the adapter connected to the top of the strainer and flush the whole raw water side with antifreeze. works like a charm...

    water backing up into engine from outdrive?? help

    one of mine had a crack at plug and the last "mechanic" epoxied the blue plug back in. changing the manifold is really not that hard, at least on the port motor. starboard might be a bit harder since there is an engine support stringer there. and that one has a drip. should be fun.

    I read somewhere else that some one created something out of brass or copper fittings. you can buy the plain manifold for about $40 on Amazon.

    water backing up into engine from outdrive?? help
