    Home LED lights

    All the packaging states the LED will last 100K plus hours, only issue is the circuitry controlling the LED's don't. All these lights cost from 20 to 50 bucks each, so replacing lights is costly. Have replaced two outdoor (12VAC low voltage), one went after two years, current one is one year...

    This helps but not a whole lot because we cannot see where the wires go. Your adding wire but were unable to see where it goes. Maybe make a list of where each of the wires go, and include switches or anything else that is connected to it. Other then the one wire I'm asking about where it goes...

    Mercruiser exhaust cheater tube

    Yes, while not designed for the Alpha, if it is installed on the transom plate it should go over the bell housing side, that is if it is not deformed. Is it to long or just not going over the end?

    replacing glass fuse terminal block, need help

    My first thought when I see this is Rats Nest Looks like you have a lot of yellow wire. Looking at a bunch of wires but not knowing where they go is meaningless. Look at it this way Below is a similar setup but look at it with this in mond. Red wires are hot and Black are negative.

    Bravo 3 gimbal ring moves up about 1/8" with swivel shaft. Any easy fix?

    There isn't much room but the motor would need to come out to attempt. Once out you might be able to get away without removing the transom plate, but it would be tight. Here is a Bravo assy without plate. With the transom plate I replaced my pin, bushing and seal on this one years ago and...

    Bravo 3 gimbal ring moves up about 1/8" with swivel shaft. Any easy fix?

    Either your ring is worn or the washers which go between them are worn. Should have between 0.001 to 0.010 clearance with the tiller handle tight. To get at the nut you either need to pull the motor or drill holes in the upper section of the transom assembly for access

    2000 7.4l MEP intermittent alarm

    Your correct the MEFI 3 has the knock sensor built into the ECM. If your ECM is set up for two knock sensors and only one is connected you will get the same error. Note L29 engine is the only one which used two sensors. What is the part number on your ECM?
