    Need to start with motor serial number. Being a 2013 it might be a EC motor but may not In most all cases were going to need what codes there are. And this needs to be in the motor section VP or Merc

    Random cutting out 4.3 mercruiser

    Reminds me of a auto rest breaker. The ones which trip when heat builds then reconnect when they cool down. If it has one then it could be its tripping at a lower amp rating. Find the fuse/breaker on the Red/Purple wire going to the key switch. See if its a regular type or a auto rest

    Neutral safety switch

    Boat still doesn't matter, need to know the motor so we can try and look up the control. Knowing what control (who made, type) gives us a better idea of where to look. If it was a Yam, or Suz I wouldn't know where to look. If it was posted in the Merc OB section, that would help Not knowing...

    Volvo Penta Knocking

    Thunderbolt 5.0 keeps dying

    Have a break in connection. There should be a purple wire feeding power, that's where the break is. Might be the connector end

    Thunderbolt 5.0 keeps dying

    Either a fuel pump problem or power is not staying connected to fuel pump. When oil pressure switch is bypassed will the pump run and continue to run with the key ON and motor not running?

    2002 Volvo Penta 8.1L GI-B - Rough Idling stalls on deceleration

    IAC should be be around 40 at idle, being at 96 means the IAC has very little room left to increase air. Motor should idle at 650 in gear, being warm low idle and 60 IAC Injectors cleaned and flowed but where they done at a place that does marine? Reason to ask is Auto testers don't normally...
