I bought my boat 96 sea ray 190br, 4.3 alpha two years ago. At the end of the summer i did a bellows replacement and I drained my outdrive. I noticed there was a dime sized spot of white goo in the corner of my remote resevoir. I cleaned out and i drained my drive oil into a clear glass jar, i...
I have a 96 sea ray 190 br. A fat kid stepped on my engine cover, the one that is in between the two rear jump seats and put some cracks in it. What is the best way to repair these. I know I can use fiberglass resin, but how do i get the color to match?
I own a 1996 sea ray 190br, with a 4.3(160 hp) and and alpha 1 outdrive (1.81:1) I found out the stock size prop that came out on my boat was 13.75x21. When I purchased my boat it had a 14.75 x19p. I replaced that with a 14.75x18p 4 blade prop. My boat always leans towards port when im...
Ive heard you can put your bellows in hot water for a while to loosen it up, and you will be able to put it on with little problems and not tool. Is this true? The cheapest I can find the tool is 45 dollars, but if it can be done without it without adding hours of time and multiple curse words...
Im about to pull my drive unit to replace the exhaust bellows. To winterize I drained all my gear lube to check for water then replaced with fresh gear oil. Can I re use this oil as I have to drain it again to pull the drive? Also at the end of the summer year before last I had all new bellows...
The year before last, I winterized my boat improperly and pooped out a block casting plug! I put a new plug in and fortunately no damage was incurred internaly. That beign said, this year I took winterizing seriously and did everything I was supposed to (drained and refilled fluids, fogged...
when i purchased my boat it had a 14.5 3 blade 19p prop i switched to a 14.5 4 blade 18p prop. I use my boat pretty much for wakeboarding only. I am limited my rpm not throttle. I reach max rpm before I max out the throttle, even with the boat loaded down. Does anyone have a similiar boat...
98 searay 190 with 4.3 and alpha gen + outdrive. I have water entering my boat somehow. It only does it when im wakeboarding. Left the boat in the water for three days over the weekend and no water entered while it was sitting. All the bellows are new. I ran the boat with the cover off and...
I have a 1998 sea ray 190 with a alpha I outdrive. I took my boat out all weekend and it worked perfectly. got home and was lowering the outdrive to drain all the water out, then went to raise it up a hair and the up butoon no longer works, but the trailer button works just fine, is it the switch?
I have a 96 searay 190 with a 4.3 (carb) and an alpha 1 outdrive. My question is I replaced my 3 blade prop for a 14.5 17p blade. I only use my boat for wakeboarding. I hit 5000 rpm about 3/4 of the way down on the throttle. Is this a problem? Ive read that you should be able to push the...
I have a mecruiser 4.3 w/carb and an alpha 1 outdrive. My temp runs around 180. Is this normal. Its been like that all last summer and again this year. After searching through the forum it seems a little high.
