    Pursuit 2260 w/ 4.3 I/O WOT Issue

    Thanks MEFI-1, EST Ignition, TBI Here is your motor parts breakdown https://www.mercruiserparts.com/4-3l-efi-gen-tbi-gm-262-v-6-0l01200 My thought is there may be a fuel pressure problem from a weak pump or clogged fuel system. Might also be timing, but it runs good until it starts running out...

    2002 tahoe 222 engine help

    Not seeing what your dealing with (no pics) I'm going to guess is its going to need some fiberglass work. Meaning the top needs to be cut maybe at the gunnels and lifted off to gain access If there is enough room to lift it up and out, might be able to make a custom lifting bracket.

    Use a heat gun or hair dryer on the boot. Push a thin s rew driver under boot to loosen

    The speed is a thin tube (not a wire), and if it can leak water in if the tube has a crack There is a steering pin seal which keeps water out. Leaking from there means the seal needs replaced, and in most cases so does the steering pin

    Chaparral Tach Reading Too High

    My guess is the Tach is bad. Many Tach's do have a selector on the back for number of cylinders, but figuring it was never touched, its probably bad No way to adjust the hour meter other then connnect to 12V supply and wait

    Trim Clicks and Makes noise, but won't go up or down

    No Doing this all the fluid from the cylinders gets spilled into the water. A hydraulic (trim) cylinder has oil on both sides. Lifting or lower anything will cause fluid to come out the other side

    Trim Clicks and Makes noise, but won't go up or down

    Don't know about a "good" way. Get container, ratchet straps and rags. When boat is close by, disconnect lines from trim pump and put them in the container. Place ratchet straps on drive and lift drive out from rear cleats or other that is available

    Sounds like you need a new trim pump It gets hot when running, doesn't move much and is full of fluid

    Wood fillers for pontoon decking

    Suggest Marine-Tex or JB Weld, either will work As with all patching and painting, prep is the most critical part Could also use epoxy resin

    Mercruiser 3.0 No Spark issues

    Maybe, the issue is when its in the water and motor stopped, the pressure is increased inside the exhaust. Running on muffs has very little pressure. To make it a bit safe, remove the exhaust boot and stick the hose down the exhaust pipe letting water run out with motor off

    Mercruiser 3.0 No Spark issues

    Tightening the bolts would not require rechecking alignment Tightening the bolts may cause them to snap off IF they are corroded and have eroded internally. IMO, once something is old and starts leaking, tightening fasteners will have no effect If the water is coming from the exhaust O-ring...
