Prior to our last lake trip I ordered a new impeller, it was advertised as new OEM Genuine Volvo part# 21951348 and replacing 3862567 and 21213660
Upon arrival it appeared fine so I installed it and tested on muffs, and after the engine filled up water came out around the transom as expected...
My 2004 SX-M outdrive has been failing to shift into forward some of the time.
On advice from a response to a previous post (apparently lost on the vBulletin upgrade), I checked the following:
Disconnected the shift cable under the outdrive cover, and found the cable has 1/4 inch of free play...
Last fall I put a swim platform on our boat but still need to take the trim cylinder end caps apart to install some limiters that came with the platform.
I'm sure there is a Volvo tool for this but has anyone found an inexpensive pin wrench that will work?
Links appreciated.
I added a remote trim switch and was wondering if there is anywhere to purchase an operation warning decal for it?
Looked at making a custom one but the only online places I could find had a minimum order of 200 or so.
Thanks.
I have a 2004 Volvo 5.0GL-D with an SX-M Outdrive
A couple of years ago I decided a remote trim switch would be nice, and installed one of these under the swim platform. Its above the waterline, but I'm sure gets regular splashes when the boat is slowing down quickly and at other times as...
I need a carb kit and power valve for a 2004 Volvo 5.0L with the Holley 2 barrel.
Where is the best place to get it and will I need any information from the carb itself, or is the Engine ID number enough? I know the marine carbs are different from an automotive version but would a rebuild kit...
While doing other in garage maintenance this afternoon, I decided to adjust/check the electric choke on my '04 Volvo 5.0L with 2bbl Holley.
Set the closed position and checked the throttle linkage for full operation then turned the key to run. After several minutes the choke butterfly had not...
I've seen some boats with Clips to hold the rear brace supports to a main bow when the top is laid down. Does anyone know where to get these from?
I can't find them on iboats.
My 2004 Volvo SX-M Outdrive Serial-4202054754 has a trim hose that seems to be leaking where the metal tubing meets the threaded nut portion. I have tightened the nut but it hasn't fixed the leak.
Are there ferrules on the bottom of these fittings or are they flared? If the hose has to be...
I would like to utilize the empty space on either side of our engine as storage for light items like fenders, inner tubes etc. I have found a couple of 30 gallon plastic storage containers that fit this space, but does the water cooled exhaust stay cool enough to avoid problems?
Planning on...
I have a Stiletto Bay Pro II prop #45420, and I'm installing it on a 2004 Volvo SX Outdrive. It is the old style with the pressed in hub.
When you snug the prop nut down, the stepped down area seems to go a bit to far into the lower unit gearcase and there is a bit of rubbing. I have a...
I'm installing a battery disconnect switch in my Negative battery cable. The original Positive and Negative cable say 4ga on them and are about 3ft long each.
Where I'm mounting the switch, will mean the Negative cable will increase in length to about 11-12ft. Should the gauge of wire I use...
Have a new prop on its way for our boat, and was hoping for confirmation I made a good choice.
