    Advise on starting a engine that has been sitting for unknown amount of time

    I think what your doing is good, don't know if the motor is rusted up or anything else With plugs out see if the starter will crank it over If it will crank over then see if it will start using a gas can. If it starts and runs do the complete run thru as Scott mentioned

    4.3 cranks idles but dies.

    Before we were looking at it not having enough gas and would die, not it doesn't die but has no power When the throttle cables moves forward does the carb open up? Has the timing been set correctly? If above 2 are yes, then time to get compression test numbers

    4.3 cranks idles but dies.

    Unplug switch and put jumper across the terminals. When key is turned ON pump will start to run. If this fixes the issue then its the switch. Don't leave jumper there it's for testing only and not safe to leave i that way

    one of these. Techmate is lowest cost but is not able to record and play back later. Diacom software that goes on your laptop can play back https://www.rinda.com/marine/marinemenu.htm

    VOLVO PENTA 5.0 GXI Engine suddenly stalled after 10 minutes of running at 3000 rpm

    Need to get the motor scanned for codes Rinda makes the scanner to be able to scan motor Without a scanner we will be just guessing. Could be a bad connection even something simple like the ignition switch or other bad connection

    Mercruiser 4.3L lift points

    If your talking about lift points, sometimes they are removed after install Can use a bolt and put it thru the chain and attach to the head. I like using 2 one inch lifting straps and place them under the exhaust manifolds and attach to hook above carb

    25 EFI fuel pump not work

    Welcome Don't know much about the motor but the fuel pump is turned on by a relay. The ECM does energize the relay by applying a ground to one side of the relay coil. Check the relay and fuses
