    Need RPM’s on 383MPI 1970 SeaRay 24’ project

    This does clear things up Dyno with 2 barrel would have also used a different distributor Was the original distributor installed correctly I would scan the ECM, it could be it's retarding the timing because it's running lean Yes, that's the 555 and from just looking at your pic that's whaat...

    Yes you can do that, but don't use the little maintenance chargers to recharge the 2 Bats. Need to have a charger that puts out enough amps to recharge the Bat it the amount of time you allow

    Need RPM’s on 383MPI 1970 SeaRay 24’ project

    Guy might be a reputable rebuilder but should not be selling MPI's with the wrong ECM. Having the wrong fuel tables loaded will not produce the power it should and can damage the motor. He sold you a new motor and it might cost another $2500 Kind of wonder if it's actually a 383 with correct...

    Mercruiser 5.7 EFI Water in Oil

    Need RPM’s on 383MPI 1970 SeaRay 24’ project

    You said new and motor looks new, but did it come from Merc or someone else rebuild it? You have a 555 ECM so no one can really change the tuning

    2003 Chapparal

    Don't know your boat, but the actual horn is normally under the rub rail, near bow on starboard side. There will just be a grid of some sort covering it. Normally cheap horn and not to loud but meets minimum spec

    Welcome Have never seen instructions for any boat of how to remove the gas tank. I've done it but in most all cases it all comes down to cutting the deck to gain access. With vent clear and bulb collapsing, I would remove the pickup tube and see if it's clear

    Thinking about an upgrade for the tow vehicle

    Depends on your state but it's my understanding so long as the gross is under 26K no one says anything. Even the commercials have a disclaimer listing (for the most part) it can pull above 26K but can be used yada yada
