    2005 Chris Craft with 2 impellers overheating

    I looked your motor up and both Alpha and Bravo show a belt driven raw water pump (Bravo type). Look forward to what Fun Times finds. I would bet a nickle there should not be a impeller in the drive

    2005 Chris Craft with 2 impellers overheating

    Gas and fuel mix recommendations for JW-10

    I'm no expert on the old OB motors (hope to see some of those folks chime in) but do know that ethanol is bad for the old I/O's. 91 octane gas won't hurt the motor but you may have slightly less HP. The higher the octane the slower the gas burns

    1996 ski sanger 315hp black scorpoin multi fuel injection.

    Spec for that motor is 43 psi and you should see right around 40 psi at idle If you were getting more then that it could be the Regulator, but less then that could be wrong regulator was installed If it was mine I would pull injectors and have them cleaned and flow tested. Would also send them...

    1996 ski sanger 315hp black scorpoin multi fuel injection.

    Moving thread to the Merc section Inboard Should measure 43 psi fuel pressure at the rail. Three pumps in 2 years, do they loose pressure or something else? What lead to replacing the pump?

    Part of my Inner Transom is Rotted.

    Git Rot will not displace water, so with wood being wet it's useless IMO Once transom has gotten soft it needs to be replaced

    That's a weber carb and it will have a number stamped on the side of it. I would contact Mike's carbs and get a kit there. Could order the Merc rebuild using 8M0120196 but Merc just adds cost
