    Rear main seal 5.7

    if you lost the spring on the seal, it will leak. did you use the installing cup? the part number is a mercruiser number. that is NOT the engine OEM, however the engine marinizer. so you are paying for a $20 seal, that they put in an $2 box with a mercruiser part number to sell you for $100...

    Oil Pressure Sender failure modes?

    you get the alarm at key on until there is oil pressure when cranking. I did install an alarm silence button. LOL. if you have good compression, the rest is fairly easy.

    universal kill switches have 4 terminals. you use the one side for powered ignitions (I/O's) and the other side with magneto ignitions (older outboards) so your kill switch is fine. again, go to the ABYC wiring colors in the electrical sticky

    2006 volvo penta 5.7 rebuild help
