    Indmar TBI smoke when warm and when accelerating

    For anyone who might stumble on this thread in the future. I removed my almost new impeller that looked perfect at the beginning of the season and since then have 10 run hours maximum. There were several vanes that hung “loose”. Luckily none that broken free. I am pretty sure I had a small...

    Indmar TBI smoke when warm and when accelerating

    Sorry. Dtc was 44. System cannot detect knock. So I think this indicates the knock sensor might be faulty.

    Indmar TBI smoke when warm and when accelerating

    All 8 of them look kind of similar. I would say these are the two outliers.

    Indmar TBI smoke when warm and when accelerating

    Hi, I have a Supra Launch SSV from 2002 with an Indmar TBI 5.7 Assault that runs great, but produces quite a bit of smoke. When first starting the engine it doesn't smoke at all. Then when running for 5 minutes at idle speed it starts to put out a small amount of smoke. When accelerating...

    350/5.7 Exhaust valve seal leak + low compression

    On top of price + shipping it would be 30 % VAT and Customs when importing to Sweden. So Roughly $1270. I have found a machine shop that will grind the seats and valves for $300-350 locally. Not sure if it is worth it spending the extra on new heads as the engine is already 19 years old with...

    350/5.7 Exhaust valve seal leak + low compression

    Hi, Now the (so far) one head is off. And I removed the exhaust valve that isn't sealing. Now I will try to find a machine shop that can fix this. (I am located in Sweden, Europe, so you probably don't have any nice suggestions...) Thanks for the input.

    350/5.7 Exhaust valve seal leak + low compression

    Thanks for all the input. I am pretty sure the 17232 gasket set is the correct one, it is stated to be Vortec. "FEL-PRO 17232 HEAD SET, GM 5.7 LITER, VORTEC ENGINES, 8-BOLT INTAKE MANIFOLD". And the intake gaskets did fit. Maybe you were referring to the Valve Seals 70817B. And those are not...

    350/5.7 Exhaust valve seal leak + low compression

    Hi, I have an Indmar Assualt 5.7 / 350 TBI from 2002. Engine very similar to a Mercruiser, hopefully it is ok to post in this part of the forum, didn't find Indmar. Background: Last year my exhaust valve spring on #7 cylinder broke, it just snapped. I didn't run the engine and got towed to...

    2002 Indmar Assault TBI rough idle and noise

    Hi, I have a 2002 Launch SSV with an Indmar Assault 350 / 5.7 TBI. Yesterday when we were out with the boat we first spent a few minutes idling in gear. Then we throttled up and got on plane. Almost immediately I thought there was a strange noise and felt a vibration in the boat. We turned off...

    Clacking/tapping noise due to blown head gasket

    Hi, I have a Supra Launch 22 SSV with a 2002 Indmar Marine small block, 350 / 5.7 litre engine. Block-wise the same as a mercruiser. The engine is a TBI (throttle body injection), is salt water cooled and has about 800 hours on it (first 400 in sea water though). This saturday I was out...

    Mechanical Clunking noise when running starter engine

    Hi, I have a Indmar Assault 5.7, same as mercruiser 5.7 basically. The engine is from 2002, if that would matter. Last night me and a buddy of mine went out wakeboarding. After about an hour or so of running I was going to pull him out of the water when the motor suddenly died. I gave full...
