    Need Advice- Carb Back fire

    You want to do it at TDC for that cylinder. Then listen for air escaping and it may tell you straight away that it is the valve(s). You could put oil in straight away but its best to get an over all picture of the cylinder. You could be leaking from more then one area.

    4.3l Alpha 2008 stalling surging rpm oddities

    Yes, Timing is adjustable but not by methods your thinking of. It has a crankshaft position sensor which triggers the coil to fire. The distributor has what most call is a crab cap. The crab (most call it crap) fails without warning, This currently is not your issue, just a foot note...

    Yes. Current draw goes from 2 POS to 2 NEG. The NEG post of 1 and 2 are together, so they are the same ground so far as voltage out put for Bat 1 or 2

    84 SeaRay Seville has hard time after 30 minutes

    It's my thinking that your "still" running out of fuel. Which fuel pump do you have, one on the left or right? Also what part number was on your new fuel pump?

    '06 Volvo Penta 5.0l fuel pump continuously running

    Looks like you have 2 diodes in line (items 16). If they short out it will keep power on the pump. Remove the relay and disconnect the pump, then measure front to back on the diode. It should read high resistance in one direction, and low in the other.

    Power Steering on 7.4GL Gas engine

    Not a VP guy, but if it uses the standard GM pump, the output fitting (pressure regulator) is removed and one stud. Then the Saginaw pump is removed from the housing. Note: the difference between the automotive and marine PS pump is the pressure regulator. So if you get just the pump, need to...

    Mercruiser 5.7 trim up solenoid

    Howdy If you did some testing you would probably find the you either have corrosion, a bad switch or trim limit switch. If the trailer button is working but not the trim up, then the limit switch on the outdrive could be the issue. Does the trailer up button work? Could be you have a bad...

    Neptune EX120 trolling motor - Forward & Off but no reverse

    I'll draw something up but the Red and the Black main wires should be on the COM (common) of each relay. The reason I'm thinking it works at all is because the Red wire is on one of the contacts, and the ground is on the com. Move the main wires to the places I pointed out and try it. If my...

    Remove the wire off the sender and with an ohm meter measure the resistance. If the resistance is off from what is shown, remove sender and put in a pan of water and retest.

    Mercruiser alpha one drive zooming noise when turning

    If they did do an alignment (which they should have) then the engine coupler would not be the issue. If they did replace the gimbal bearing and U-joints, and did a quality job rebuilding the drive, then there should be no vibration. The guys over in your area either don't know how to fix a...

    72 Thunderbird Formula w/twin 165hp Mercs

    Holley recommends to put them at or below the tank exit to put less strain on the pumps. The pumps go after the water separator filter, which can be higher but again low is better. Basically after the filter and pump are full of fuel there won't be much of a lift problem for the pump do to...
