    NS90A slow trimming down, wire to motor getting hot and smoking

    Have no knowledge of these OB's, but hot wires and smoke means something is shorting out. When current increases (what happens when shorts happen) then the wire sized for the motor is drawing more then designed for. It's most likely the trim motor. Reason being is the relays just pass voltage...

    no start

    The fuse is used to protect the battery if the alternator shorts out. This is not you current problem, install one if you wish but will not change anything now You can crank and then it won't crank or even click Meaning corrosion (bad connections) and /or bad key switch

    Engine dies after running for several minutes

    That pic is not a antisiphon valve and has no business in my opinion in the fuel line.

    Mercruiser Alpha 1 - backfired and died out on the water ( Its electrical 100% ) - need basic troubleshooting steps,, how do i check charging system?

    That's a standard deep cycle lead acid and full charge should be 12.7V Your higher readings just means your meter is off a little. No biggy just something to note

    no start

    You can but by the looks of the pics start by removing all the cables and wires and clean them up to shinny metal. Also the ground cables. There is a lot of corrosion.

    5.7 EFI stalls when warm and shifting into gear

    Yes, spray intake and base of TB Numbers track each other pretty close to each other. I'm no expert just what I'm use to seeing, as before might try cleaning IAC but not chemicals

    5.7 EFI stalls when warm and shifting into gear

    I understand the manual, I'm thinking intake leak Could be the IAC is just not responding quick enough, but most times I'll see the counts higher. With it down in the lower numbers, it's almost closed. IAC can go to 100

    small pencil line cracks

    Most epoxy needs to be roughed up with 80 grit for additional coat or other to hold. Would wipe it down with acetone @ondarvr would be best to ask

    2016 Mercruiser 4.3 TKS Exhaust Riser Gaskets

    It will be ok, just run a bit cooler. The restricted gaskets help keep the manifolds warmer and all over pressure water exits the elbow. The unrestricted will send more water thru the mans before it exits Note the instillation of restricted gasket

    Power steering return line keeps blowing at cooler 95' 7.4 Bravo1

    Agree, that hose should never see much above 10 psi if that. You sure that's the return line and not on the pressure side? If should come from the ram, thru cooler to reservoir tank, "open flow" no restriction
