Hey guys first year with my boat and I have had good luck with everything working up until now. My seawater pump cracked on the housing that holds the impeller. I replaced the impeller and housing and when I got everything set back up there was a leak coming out of the side of the seawater pump...
I've read every thread on this subject and have gone down almost every road I can think of. I would APPRECIATE any advice as I'm 25k in and no boat to use. Here's the story.. 2007 320 Dancer with 350 V drives closed cooling system....had a sea water (exhaust) issue where port not pumping as...
I wanted to share an issue I've spent a couple of weeks and a lot of money troubleshooting (and puling my hair out over!), in hopes that it helps someone else out there having a similar problem (and I actually found these forums extremely helpful when troubleshooting this and other issues, so...
Greetings
I recently purchased a 2004 Sea Ray 240 Sundeck. I filled the water tank to capacity, turned on the water pump but only a trickle of water flows from one of the spray nozzles. No water flows from the sink faucets. The previous owner didn't experience this problem. He suggested...
2001 310 Sundancer
When I first turn on the water system it pumps to pressure and holds. Once I use the water and stop, it just keeps pumping and appears to over pressure the system. I then have to shut it off and wait a while before being able to turn it on and have it work properly again...
so I am also wandering if this old 1968 srv 185 has the rubber impellors and boats do. I am afraid to take apart and look at stuff without knowing parts numbers. My original manual doesn't say anything about them or have them listed in parts list. I think I know where they should be on new...
I own a 2001 290 sundancer that has been left quite abandoned for the last 3 years and it now I'm working on fixing it.
One of the issues is the AC Water recirculation pump is not turning on, so I have been trying to remove it to replace/fix it.
The problem is that I cannot figure out how to...
So I had new pumps put on last week. They ran great before so it was more of a maintenance decision.
With old pumps the temp would be around 158 while cruising. When I came off plane they would maybe hit 162-164 for a few mins and then settle down to 158, all normal. With new pumps I’m now...
I just bought a 2006 320. Today we were moving it from the broker to our marina. Right after we were underway, I lost water pressure in the port engine. I shut it down and we continued on the starboard. When we tied up, I opened the hatch and immediately saw the serpentine belt had broken. The...
I have a 93 Sea Ray 240 Overnighter with 7.4 Merc with Bravo One drive. I was trying to winterize the boat engine myself and had problems getting the antifreeze to go into the drive, and I may have ran the motor too long without water. The motor started to overheat, so I shut it down and let...
Sea Water Pump - 46-807151A12. Fits V-6 & V-8 (454/502 Gen V) with v-belt and electric fuel pump. This unit is used. Thought it was defective so it was replaced. It was not defective. A new impeller has been installed. This is an OEM pump from a mercruiser 454MPI engine.
Hey all!
I just acquired a 79 weekender 300 and have been tinkering with it so we can get it out on the water. Still a couple issues to sort out but figure I'll post and see what kind of solutions are out there.
For her age she is in great shape except for the odd quirk which we are trying to...
Hi all, I recently took my boat for warranty work to change the drive coupler so they had to haul out the motor and leg. In doing so, they discovered a small mussel in the water pump assembly so they said it had to be serviced and recommended that I change the impeller. I had it changed about a...

Hey everybody, it is about time to change my water pumps out on my OMC Cobra outdrives. Some people say the complete outdrive must be taken off to do this..Is that true? or can you just drop the lower unit? I have done some searches, and there is not a lot of info on this...I was going to change...
I fill the fresh water tank to overflow and all works fine for about the 1st 5 gallons used from the 28 gallon tank. Then, it sputters a little and no more water. The on demand pump continues to run until we shut of its power so its trying to pump water.
Is the problem the suction line is only...
