1994 5.8Fi PMDA
My outdrive tends to leak (fall) down over time. There are no fluid leaks that I can see on the exterior or interior. The fluid level is fine. Does my problem lie within the pump itself or could the rams be at fault? Thanks
Am I blind or is there no way to search specific forums anymore? I see the general search at the top of the page but that just lets you search in all forums. THanks

Had intermittent starting issues for a while where I'd turn the key and get nothing. Decided to tap on the typical Ford 4 terminal solenoid and voila...it started. Continued to test it each time I got nothing after turning the key and everytime I tapped the solenoid it...

Anyone know where I can find an equivalent to VP #3851818. That part# is obsolete. I did just try ordering a set for a 1994 5.8L Ford engine but the wires are way too short. Didn't think there'd be any difference since they seem to all have the same set up.

Looking for the spark plug number for my engine. The Volvo number is 3851868 but it's obsolete and I'd rather just go with a well known brand which would be cheaper anyway. Should I stick with Autolite or Motorcraft because it's a Ford engine? What type should I...

I upgraded to a 130A alternator. I upgraded all the wiring to it with 4 awg just as suggested on this forum. It charges great now but I have an issue of it tripping my 60A breaker in the engine compartment. This only happens when I'm cruising over 3000 rpm and not...

I'm looking for the part number on my trim sending unit. I can't find anything on this site. I've found what looks like mine on ebay but don't know if it's the correct one. I have an SX drive. Any help?
I have a 1994 Volvo 5.8Fi PMDA and was looking to replace the alternator. I have a Prestolite 65A in it now which now failed for the second time in 4 years. I have a feeling that running 2 amps and subs must take a toll on it. Would going to a 130A alternator solve this problem and would I have...
1994 PMDA engine, SX outdrive. My outdrive keeps falling down little by little. Last season it seemed to stay up when it was brought all the way up but this year it slowly falls all the way down in a few days. Would this be the seals in my pump or the rams? Can I get a seal kit for the pump? Thanks!

Anyone know the factory fuel pressure for my engine? I know the automotive side of this engine is 45psi. Just wondering if it's the same for the marine application.
1994 5.8Fi PMDA
When I start the engine cold it fires right up but after running it a while and shutting it down for a while, it's tough getting it to start again. I turns over quite a bit. I've gone thru the tuneup and have replaced the fuel filter as well. Any ideas?
Have an 1981 merc 470 that was running fine and then decided to quit. I checked spark and didn't have any off the coil so I assumed the coil. Removed the wires off the terminals and the coil started leaking fluid so I assumed bad coil. Bought a new coil and installed and it started right up. It...
Looking for the correct part numbers for my input shaft o-rings. I come up with 3852565. Is this correct? Also looking for the o-ring (not the molded one, but the circular one) number on the plastic part of the fresh water pick-up tube that goes into the pivot housing.
Thanks!!

I'm still having issues with my pump sucking water but I believe I've narrowed it down as a result of some things I've encountered while trying to figure this problem out.
After taking boat out of storage, the pump will not suck water from the muffs/hose. I take it to...

For the life of me I cannot get my sea pump to suck water when I put the muffs on the outdrive. I have a new impeller and I just installed a new cam in the sea pump. There seem to be no obstructions because I can flow water from the pump to the outdrive. Any ideas?
Thanks!
