    Mercrusier 350 MAG MPI - RPM issue under a load

    Those are iridium plugs and don't try to adjust, the thin coating will crack You have the correct plugs for the motor Advance is good You have done everything correct. It should be producing enough power if it was rebuilt correctly. Don't think I asked this before, but look for the casting...

    Mercruiser ECM replacement?

    Replaced the wires and plugs and it runs better, great As mentioned in post 21, Ebay injectors in most cases are junk. Ebay sells old junk injectors as new/rebuilt. Your still flooding and you need new injectors

    Yes your motor has a VST (vapor separation tank) Your mechanical belt driven fuel pump is keeping the tank filled but the fuel rail is is heating up and vapor is building. You could bleed the fuel rail each time it does it to get going, but that puts a gas soaked rag in the boat Your motor...

    Mercruiser Vapor Lock Kit Install

    Mercruiser 6.2l 300 (2018 model) Gimbal bearing grease how to?

    Vibration throttling up is either the prop or the drive in most cases. If prop is in good condition, look at the gimbal bearing and the U joints

    A1G1 Top gears

    Have not heard of Cryo stuff on gears, but normally the gears would last more then one life time if maintenance is done. A Alpha drive should not have massive power behind it. Look forward to the comments of better gears but maybe just a new SEI upper will outlast most of us

    Trim pump

    Did ya by chance look inside the tank before installing? Look for some note left inside side saying something stupid like add oil before using. :unsure: Just another thought if it might get caught against the intake to cause the cavitation
