    Fuel supply module

    Would need to know what the code was. Would also like to know what the fuel pressure output is. Could be any of the components, low/high pumps, regulator or float. There is a shrader valve where the fuel pressure is measured Don't see how the fuel module/pump would have a problem even if it...

    ok, then change up A 4x4 prop set of 18 = a 3x3 prop set of 20 So if you had 3x3 20Pitch you have about the same with 4x4 18Pitch Go with a 3x3 18P

    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    Yes 3B 18 but 3B props normally come in odd numbers. If that's the case get 3B 17. If rpms get to high and your on plane go with 3B 19, but start lower first

    Starting outside of boat, on stand

    Have seen but I wouldn't do it that way I like using a grease pencil Remove all the plugs. Back all rocker nuts out so their either nuts are loose, or the rocker nut is at the top of the stud. Rotate motor 1/2 turn. Look for any rocker which is down opening a valve. Go to valve next to it...

    IAC problems

    Weird issue for sure. No start and after IAC replaced it does start but idles at 1200 Agree with your test procedure, should blink with each connection as manual shows One test is turn engine OFF, unplug IAC for 10 seconds. When restarted does it idle 200 rpm higher?

    IAC problems

    If I understand correctly It was running fine until it wouldn't idle and would die. Could get it started with fast idle. After replacing the IAC it now will start but idles at 1200 RPM? If this is true, I would suspect the IAC was not installed correctly, or the wrong part was installed What...

    Mercruiser 260 weird misfire

    Maybe antisiphon valve on top the tank but usually if they clog they don't free up. Same goes with collapsing fuel line, tank pickup and fuel pump
