    Value of my unit?? Mercury Marine Sport Jet Pump

    I’m going to venture a guess that there are more good pumps than there are good power heads

    No dipstick on 1989 era 3.0L?

    Actually last GM transmission to have a dipstick was the 6L80E and not all of them have one. However it’s not hard to check and fill usually

    The Hurricane engines that Ram uses now have an oil level sensor, just for example. GM doesn’t have anything so far

    2000’s Bayliner 175 I/O

    I was still searching Facebook marketplace and a 1989 Smokercraft 21’ cuddy popped up. I knew Sylvan and StarCraft both were part of Smokercraft in that time. I had to do a double take on it as it is the exact same boat as the Sylvan Offshore 21’. Unlike the StarCraft Islander that has a few...

    Affordable fuel injection intriguing

    Yeah I knew the DDIS was fully NLA and expecting to eventually need to replace the system but from the reading I’ve done on it, the cam sensor isn’t usually the issue. As it turns out though a sniper can’t do individual coils. Need to be terminator X stealth 4150 kit which is $$$$$$ and overkill

    Affordable fuel injection intriguing

    my gears are turning again. New boat has 3.0 with DDIS ignition. Magic part being the cam sensor. Would be cool to run individual coils

    Getting impatient

    I would simply bring a plate with me except the trailer has a PA state issue vin tag on it

    Sylvan Offshore/ Islander V berth. Cushions

    I found the brochure on the boat and it appears that it never had a fill in section, so I’ll have to make a platform that is self supporting and a new cushion

    Sylvan Offshore/ Islander V berth. Cushions

    Anyone know how the V berth cushions fit in? Did all boats get the fill in cushions? Wife and I maybwant to overnight on our new to us Offshore 22 as she would like to do some camping. I think it’s missing center cushion that fits in between the 2 ‘benches’ in the cabin but I don’t even know if...

    2000’s Bayliner 175 I/O

    Thanks. I did have a thought about looking into transport tags and it looks like the notary closest to the seller does issue them, so that’s probably my best option.

    Getting impatient

    I was getting nervous as in the past I’ve borrowed the plate from a similar boat trailer that I own as most of my trailers have home made trailer status. But as it turns out the guys local notary offers transit tags. I looked it up to be sure.

    No dipstick on 1989 era 3.0L?

    I’m looking at # 802893Q4 which should be for I/0. I’ll run in line from the fuel selector valve to the fuel pump

    Getting impatient

    Guess I get it mixed up since the state is huge. It was definitely worth it. 1989 Sylvan Offshore 22. The thread on the Bayliner 175 that I posted, I ultimately found that one as an Islander/Offshore was really my dream boat. Hence why I drove almost 6 hours to go look at it. I pick it up in 2...

    2000’s Bayliner 175 I/O

    I’m thinking we’re really going to like it. I really like that yes it’s a fishing boat but everything is there to keep it a family boat just the same

    I’m for sure adding a water separator. I’m just getting rid of the can style inline filter between the pump and carb.
