Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
Wow i am a rookie!!!!<br />454 mercruiser magnum, carberated.<br />Not sure of the year of the motor but the boat is a 1989 Baja 240 sport. The motor has under 80 hours so it was either a rebuilt or new at some point.
I am a decent car mechanic so I hope to do most of the repairs that does not require pulling the boat out of the water myself, so mostly motor or electrical stuff.
You need the merc serial # should be on the motor if its a merc <br /><br />There a lot of different things they change so your working blind with out the number<br /><br /><br />tommays
You will need a SN for your engine. Manual 9 is for engines 85-88 while manual 15 is for 89-92. Book 16 (in Bondo's link) is for 92 to 97 engines.<br />And you only have about a 50/50 chance of having an 89 engine in an 89 boat.<br />Neither 9 nor 15 is online.
