    03 150 Saltwater EFI thermostat housing

    So i found the issue. See the image attached. It seems as if the housing is taller on the portside. Can you see the difference? Now i dont know if i should buy a housing and see if they are the same or try to find a bolt.

    03 150 Saltwater EFI thermostat housing

    Yes i tried the other 3 bolts to try and fit into that location. Same thing they did not catch the thread. It catches when i just thread the bolt though. I didnt mean i will grind but just clean up the surface area and see if it helps. Also I will clean the threads on the bolts with wire brush.

    2003 150 saltwalter water pump tube

    Thank you, I have a Selco manual. Number 42 in your diagram came with the new pump but it was already inside the housing. My image, i believe the old one from the old housing (42 & 50) is what is stuck on the water tube. I wanted to be sure because when i pulled on it the other day it was hard...

    Reseal cabin door frame

    I like those lights. I was amazed when I turned them on how much I could see. I was using one of those lights that take a battery and you press to turn on/off. I could not get that thing in the right place to see to save my life. It would find it way directly into my eyes though. This works...

    Reseal cabin door frame

    So it was not a straight forward remove and install. At the top had about a half inch gap on each corner which made a half inch gap at the top of the ceiling where the frame meets the dash. Exactly where rain water was getting in and running down the ceiling. I had to sand down about a half inch...

    It seems my prop shaft seals are leaking. I did a pressure test and bubbled up right away. I pulled the seals the hack way and saw that the seals were in wrong. The metal seal was in first and the rubber seal was in second and they were lined up front to back. The metal seal that was in first...
