    4.3LX acceleration opinions

    Its weight distribution. With folks moving forward it can tip the bow down and cause the prop to come closer to the surface. Grab some air and ventilate a tad. It would take some testing to figure out exactly what is happening, but this is my thought

    4.3LX acceleration opinions

    OK sorry had to do it I don't see an issue right now because your overloaded. The boat weight distribution would have issue with what your seeing. Try to run it with normal load and see what it does

    Volvo Penta 3.0 GSP-C Engine Dying and Zero Oil Pressure

    Without testing I'm thinking corrosion and /or bad connection. Reason being because it get jerky, like if it starts to miss and oil pressure at zero. So something is reducing power enough that the gauge lowers. Does the temp gauge also show cold maybe?

    5.7 EFI won’t turn over

    If I'm understanding correctly Power to all 3 wires but nothing is working. I would start looking at grounds. The ground cable from battery to engine block, then the 10 pin engine connector connector

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    The throttle should be in neutral, which I'm sure it is. Other then that just need initial adjust

    3.0l very high rpm on start up

    Ok Throttle cable should be same length as original. Changing the cable should not change the adjustment. Dont see how a cable would get that much slop

    Volvo Penta trim tilt wiring trouble

    That is classic corrosion issue. When you hit the trim the voltage drops so much that the motor dies. Look closer at the cable ends and do remove both ends of both cables to clean and inspect
