    Mercruiser 3.0 No Spark issues

    The ports are shown in this link https://www.thehulltruth.com/boating-forum/601303-water-coming-weird-place-mercruiser-i-o.html The shift interruptor is only used when the prop has a load on it in the water. There is no load on the prop out of the water so its not used

    Mercruiser 3.0 No Spark issues

    Not pulling the drive apart then the 2 halves are not part of the problem The shifting issue is either the cable or the shift foot was bent when removed when not in neutral The exhaust relief ports are about 1/2 inch size holes on each side of the transom assembly between the trim hose...

    2008 115 hp mercury 4 stroke EFI bogging.

    Been looking at the parts break down for the motor and I'm unable to find the fuel test port.

    Waste Tank Level Indicator - Options?

    The one in your link was similar to the one which came with my cruiser. Used 3 floats and once the top one tunes ON, it shuts the system down and not able to use until pumped out

    2001 Mercruiser 5.7 TBI Won't Keep Running

    If your fuel line connects at posted item 3, then look on the other side (item 1) and see if that is the plug To ring out or ohm out is to set the digital meter on ohm scale.

    2001 Mercruiser 5.7 TBI Won't Keep Running

    Do the wires ring/ohm out? If you have a plug (item 3) it can be removed and pressure gauge attached https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/31844/2704/110 Otherwise you would need something like the Merc fitting to put inline where the fuel line attaches to TB

    Mercruiser 3.0 No Spark issues

    Should be a non-issue. The tube is just an extension of the fuel line. Being loose around the outside is no issue so long as the tube is not leaking on the inside. If it was leaking then it would run out of gas

    upgrading the ignition in my 4.3 Mercruiser

    You have a TBV ignition module, it's just the older style which uses a different connector. Its no longer made and if it needs to be replaced then there is a kit to change over to new design. The pic below is showing the newer design but where the wires go is the same except the Tan/Blue is...

    Mercruiser 3.0 replaced fuel pump

    Using a portable tank is a good idea To verify its not the pump, remove it from the block and reconnect lines. Now pump the pump by hand to see if fuel pumps thru the lines Being a new pump, my guess is there is an issue with the rod to pump movement
