    Volvo Penta aq125a grinding noise

    No gimbal bearing, they have a drive shaft bearing. Lot different that the Gimbal replacement. The V-8 drive shaft replacement is way harder to replace than the 4cyl.

    These 125/130 Volvo's need the factory prop for best performance. These 125's need the VOLVO prop. The aftermarket ones are ok for the bigger motors not the 4cyl. Volvo's . Prop story: one of my friends had a 22ft. with a 125 He asked me to look at it as he was having trouble with acceleration...

    Carb leaking gas from top two holes 1989 85hp

    The kit, be real careful when trying to "fix" or install any of these parts. Some kits have a seat in them and some carbs, the seat won't come out??

    Proper Fuel water separator for a 125 ho Force

    ANY one will work, the ones with the clear bowl will make you happy!! Just finding a location will be tough?? Then install a small particle filter between the pump and the carbs. Fram G-2 G-3 G-12 works well.

    Starter and choke issue

    The shaft or armature bends from excessive use. Also if the bottom mounting bracket is missing it leads to bent a shaft. A tiny bit of oil or thin grease on the worm gear after cleaning might help don't get too much on it or the rubber in the bendix slips and is useless.. These starters are easy...

    http://www.volvopentastore.com/mall/image/view/7/8/7464_4.png This is a parts breakdown for the 270 drive. Your lucky as if the motor was a V-8 you'd have to pull the motor to do the service :)

    Volvo Penta aq125a grinding noise

    You posted: maybe primary drive bearing and bell housing bearings ? .. I'd pull the top of the drive and inspect the drive shaft. The 125 has 1 bearing and that can be serviced from the outside. On the top/back of the bell housing is a grease fitting that most people don't utilize or even know...

    If it's an 89 you can just about bet the wire's bad. :( I thought the plug wires were part of the coil and couldn't be replaced???? Post a pic?? I've changed the plug boot and covered the wire with double shrink wrap and liquid electric tape(actually worked)

    Tilt trim switch wiring

    Fram G-2 G-3 G-12 what ever fits your fuel line. All 3 are good small particle filters. I installed a G-2 on a travel lift that was plagued with fuel delivery problems. It worked great until someone tried burning water instead of gas :(

    Starter and choke issue

    That's the first thing that should have been done SOP We can't help if you don't follow the suggestions?? I've worked on hundreds of these things and the first thing I would do is clean the slide and choke.
