    Albemarle 24 - EFI maps and fuel return

    01 Mercruiser 5.0 seems to have lost Horsepower

    New to you boat should have had some maintenance done. Fuel filter, impeller, check the plugs and cap. Drive alignment check, etc, etc Remove the fuel filter and dump the contents into a clear jar to see if there is only clean gas. Agree, pull some plugs and check that the wires are attached...

    Seawater Pump Rotation?

    Your correct, the impeller was installed in the wrong direction. Remove and reinstall The pump can run in either direction but it would take a reverse rotation motor for the way it is now

    Anchor Upgrade...need Real World Reviews

    With basically soft stuff I would suggest what you have or a plow anchor. The fluke/Danforth needs to be set first. Drop, pay out and back up until it hooks. The plow/Delta will go deep and hook but also needs to be set. Go up to a 20 pounder, your chain is good, and adding more will only help

    There are clamps with teeth to keep it from slipping, but could drill a hole and bolt, or have it welded

    alignment tool drill hole position?

    Several have been sold but I don't like them. Maybe someone will advise but my thought is find a rod that will just go in with a shoulder. Having the alignment bar inside the coupler for me is a bad idea. Only way this would work out is if the coupler was perfect alignment. You could measure...

    Crankshaft damper

    Soak it with PB Blaster or penetrating oil for a few days, then use a ouller. Can probably get a loaner at a local auto store https://www.summitracing.com/parts/oes-27019
