    Mercruiser Water Pump

    If the pump housing isn't cracked or the shaft damaged, the pump can be rebuilt for about $60 and a couple hours time. Only special tool you need is a power steering type pulley puller.

    Questions regarding the charging/cooling system on 1989 5.7 Mercruiser

    If your getting 16.4 volts at the alternator with a known good meter, I would remove the alternator and have it tested. My guess is the regulator has gone out. Suggest checking your power steering cooler for pieces, If that's clear next thing I would check would be the exhaust manifolds and...

    Help a Clueless Female :-)

    :welcome: to iboats Found your pump and it appears to draw .75 amps @ 120VAC, this does not state what the initial turn on amps are but I would suspect to be less then 5 amps. While the pump will not draw much when running the inverter will be the main power drain. The inverter will pull...
