    need wiring help and advice

    The gauge wire to use depends on what it goes to and how far. For your setup I would not bother with how far (distance) just look at the unit you going to hook up (VHF 10 amp, 14 AWG wire, Trolling motor 20-40 amps and could be 12 or 24V) and use wire, breakers or fuses accordingly. Most...

    6.2 MPI Cranks but won't start.

    It could very well be, but if we go back I was lead to believe the TB-V troubleshooting guide was used and only the coil was not sparking. If this is not the case I suggest running through it.

    Suggested Recommendation to FIX Iboats for interum

    As we can all verify next to nothing is working correctly. Most all are trying to hang in here long enough to allow iboats to figure the issues out.

    2000 5.7 EFI BRAVO 3 fuel cutting out at 3,000 RPM

    Re: 2000 5.7 EFI BRAVO 3 fuel cutting out at 3,000 RPM That is the wrong way to do it for your engine. The AB connection is for TB-4 you should have a TB-5 setup. You need to connect a wire from the Pur/Wht wire (No 13) to ground.

    no spark on my 4.3 vortec please help

    Re: no spark on my 4.3 vortec please help You burned up 2 coils? The TB-4 ignition uses a ballast resistor between 12V power and the coil. Only time it gets full 12V is during starting. You should have 12V on the Wht/Red wire. You could probably use the ignition from the 05, is it a...

    Twin Mercruiser 4.3 drive trim issue.

    Re: Twin Mercruiser 4.3 drive trim issue. OK, then that is the way it has always worked your just now realizing it. To fix it you need either two trailer switches or a different trailer switch wired to do the up together. The blue/wht wire is the up wire and the trailer switch bypasses the...
