    New gimbal bearing I think? If so, insert bar and smack it with your hand up/down/left/right a couple times. Remove and reinsert and see if its a bit easier. Need to center the bearing after each adjustment It should go in with 2 fingers

    Mercruiser start/ignition issue

    The Yellow/Red is the start circuit and is not your problem. You want to find out why there is no power to the helm Missed this when I first read your post Getting power at the Red/purple and nothing on the others would just mean your key switch is bad. Jump across from the Red/purple to...

    Check the 90 amp fuse on the starter post. There is a fuse inside it. Should have 12V on the small stud If power is there, check the ignition key switch. If no power at key check the 20 amp fuse

    1990 5.7. 260 Overcooling at idle.

    The K&N looks good, but is more restrictive then the standard flame arrestor. Not that the motor will pull in enough air to make a difference

    Engine alignment

    No kidding dude, but we don't know if one side has moved more then the other over time. So if there is NOT a straight up/down marking, then one does need to move more then the other. Most probable cause is not always what has happened. Could be over time one mount softened more then another...

    1990 5.7. 260 Overcooling at idle.

    Suggest don't look for marine approved or local auto supply house Cooling issue is either the thermostat or how the thermostat was installed. Were all the parts installed and installed correctly

    2012 5.0gxic-270-r wont start. 14 beeps when I turn the key on

    No need to check pin 19 for 5V, if one connection is good they all are Check for 12V on one side of the injector with key ON. If 12V is there, need a noid light to see the ECM is pulsing them when cranking. Could try a very short shot of starting fluid just to check for spark. Again very...
