    Thanks for the SN The carb bowl will fill completely in a few seconds. Once filled, it will run for several minutes before bowl runs dry. The 30 seconds is a hard to figure issue. If fuel pump does not turn ON during cranking, then need to check the wiring. When cranking power comes from...

    Mercruiser 6.2 showing high water pressure

    My thought on water pressure sensors, they vacuum (so to speak) There is no reason what so ever to have one other then to cause problems with anything other then "maybe" a CAT motor If my temp was running good, and so long as there is not issue(s) with the ECM throwing codes. Leave the sensor...
