So I barely used the boat this season, like to the point I didn't use a full tank of gas. I'm about to winterize and seems like a waste to dump all the gear lube that was barely used which I replaced last fall.
Having any water in there is a big no no since the boat will see -40C temperatures...
Hi guys,
I followed the popular youtube video to adjust the linkage cables, all good. But, I've been noticing that the electric choke on my 4.3 tends to stay open after the engine cools down. This looks to be caused by the idle screw putting too much pressure on the "lobe" (not sure what that...
Looks like these things used a very specific frequency so unless I can find a good used gauge or transducer (of broken) its a no go and entire setup has to be replaced.
I have a Lowrance 3500 depth sounder on my 2000 rinker bowrider. It just flashes 0.5ft all the time, it never worked since I got this boat, be it on trailer or in the water.
The transducer is mounted under the engine, not looking forward to touching it, hard to see how wiring could be damaged...
OK so I hooked up a relay for the switched 12V and noise was still there, I then ran the constant from the deck to the amps 12V input, which comes from battery, and boom noise is gone. Have not checked with engine running but the blower noise is gone.
So yeah, combination of a relay and...
Was thinking about doing that since its the last part thats still feed from the original boat wiring. I have a relay laying around maybe I'll give it a shot, a little skeptical but nothing else to do.
OK so new season and I thought I would look into this again while I have the boat on the driveway.
I ran a dedicated ground wire from the battery to the head unit, the amp already has dedicated cables from the battery for both ground and power, and still the noise is there when blower is ON...
