    Cable steering play will always be there but not that much. Most often there is 2 to 3 inches as measure on the outside of the helm. There is slight bit of play inside the helm gear box and the tiller arm and cable. Turn the helm and have someone else look at the tiller arm going to the out...

    RPM Gauges

    About any of them will work. Tach's have settings on the back of the gauge to set for how many cylinders the motor has. The sync gauge also uses the Tach signal. I would start by determining who made the current gauges and see if they still make them, unless you want a different type then...

    I understand your dilemma, have not seen this my self. As in my pic this is the way I see it. Could remove the sender and look inside to see which is which. Other then that can apply some air to the ports to see if the exit on top or below

    Low power under heavy load

    Being the old ones there not bad, tad rich but ok Have you run the boat enough to burn up most of the old gas.? Old gas doesn't get better with snake oil (sea foam or other), just need to remove or burn enough to get rid of it.

    Would need a serial number to verify but being a 01 I would guess it has a TKS carb. Your issue soulnds like it needs a carb rebuild What do the plugs look like?

    350 mag mpi 2000 won't start

    Unsure but could be a MEFI-1 or 2, in any case trouble shooting will be the same. Is there 12V at the coil with key ON? When cranking can you see the Tachometer show at least 300 rpm? Need a 12V resistor LED or a digital multimeter with a tone check. Connect the LED or meter as shown and a...
