    Hope the Heat is Keeping UP

    Installed a new 16 seer heat pump this summer, and with the temps dropping below 30F the heat pump would be going into electric coil mode. Good thing also installed 2 vented propane gas logs. Turned HP down to 66 and the logs to 68. This way the HP does not turn on and the logs take over...

    Chrysler 130

    Keep look for another motor or block to replace my 105. Frank told me I could use a 105 (original) 120 or Force 120 and change my cowling so long as it was before 1994. Found a boat and motor on CL but guy says compression is 132 across the board (skeptical) and its a mid 80's motor. I didn't...

    Pintle Hitch

    Over the years I have accumulated all kinds of hitch balls (pun intended). Have the straight 3-way, a couple 2 5/16, variations of 2 inch drops and picked up a pintle hitch some years back when needing a 10 ton Tag trailer. Was out today moving the Tag trailer and an empty cruiser trailer to...

    Fuel Pump/Pressure Problem Or Something Else? TIGE Mercruiser Magnum 454 EFI

    No, you test high pressure on the fuel rail at the shrader valve which is under the intake plenum. Removing the top lets you see if there is any crud building up. The high pressure pump can be lifted out to have a look

    Volvo AD41P RPM Issue

    Not saying your wrong, but in all fairness, the only place I've ever seen CAC has been with VP. Been on the Heavy Equipment Forum for as long as here and never seen it, all call them inner coolers. Most cases for low rpm in these motors is clogged exhaust, turbo or fuel pressure. Running...

    Fuel Pump/Pressure Problem Or Something Else? TIGE Mercruiser Magnum 454 EFI

    2005 Mercruiser 5.0 liter mpi with dual cooling Where is the Lifting eye ?

    Agree with this unless you have the thermostat housing ring hook installed, if its there use it. Loosen the top nut on the engine mount. Pick the front of the motor up until it is just off the front mounts. Adjust the lower nut until it makes full contact. Now lower weight off of motor...

    Quicksilver 3000 Controls Replacement

    Yes, the limit switch is located on the drive. So if its connected to the trim switch, pressing the trim buttons will not allow the drive to go up all the way. If the limit switch is not there, or if it is bypassed the limit buttons will fully raise or fully lower the drive. It can be...

    Loose engine mount found !

    Muc is correct, I pay more attention to the lock nut on top. The listing only calls it a nut but it is a nylock nut http://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/31770/1939/250

    8.1 Crusader winterizing ??

    What most do, is take a piece of aluminum, cut the shape out, then drill and tap a hole for the air fitting, then use a piece or rubber as a seal. It could be made from ply wood, but would need some kind of metal strap to go over it to screw down in place Some use things like sea flush for...
