    Asking But Don't think anyone knows

    Yes, still looking I think a 27 would be good enough, but thinking about the 29 Maybe a used 270 with a 8.2 which would have CAT's and pull motor from my cruiser and install in it. 500+ HP in a 27 bowrider Weeee

    Asking But Don't think anyone knows

    I might have figured it out, Ilmor is listed as joystick control with the 5.3 the 6.2 is not, and there is the twin thing. Its the most expensive but most of the new 290's with Merc package is joystick but its not mentioned

    Asking But Don't think anyone knows

    ILMOR makes a 6.2 430HP and 5.3 365HP So why is the 5.3 cost more then the 6.2? Seeing this on Formula website

    Adding a Temperature Gauge

    Being a Merc look for a Tan colored wire, if not there will need to add one. The typical 10 pin harness has all the wires listed

    Start and run Mercury 5.7 on stand

    The ECM applies grounds to relay coils to energize them, and this isn't happening. If it was mine I would open the ECM (drill rivets out if needed) and see if it needs to be dried out. If all good then have it tested

    Start and run Mercury 5.7 on stand

    Submerged that helps I would replace the relays, but could swap them to see if things change. Local auto parts will have the relays that will work the same, just may not look the same. Could also remove the cover off the ECM to see if it needs drying out If it was salt need to do as Scott...

    Start and run Mercury 5.7 on stand

    ok, Check fuses, there is at least 3 of them When power is applied to pin C does the MPR (main power relay) click? When power is applied is there 12V at the fuel pump? Note, power energizes the MPR which powers up the ECM. The ECM then applies a ground to the FPR which would turn the pump ON...

    Dean's List gets another motor

    Never thought head bolts would be such an issue. Mistake 1 was to use a 454 as the baseline for the head, wrong. Find a ARP kit 3607 which comes with 3 different lengths and 8 are 5 inches which are to long. Original bolts removed from head were 24 each at 4.187 and 8 at 2.187, with speck...

    Alarm and then limp mode 2015 Mercury 50 hp 4 stroke

    If this is a EFI motor look for another sensor on the head. Could be the temp sensor is the issue, otherwise need a scan

    Alarm and then limp mode 2015 Mercury 50 hp 4 stroke

    If that's the ECM temp sensor then that's what's sounding the alarm, otherwise need to scan the motor to find out what is causing alarm

    "Christmas staff fund charge" on my marina bill?

    My marina hasn't started this kind of thing "yet", but they did start charging 5% if a credit card is used. Marina gets charged around 3% and they charge 5. The ruff point is if your paying cash/check you have to ask them to remove it
