    AQ270 won't trim up after hitting a 2x8

    So, I have a 85 Bayliner 1950, with an AQ125b and an AQ270 outdrive. Last week, was having a wonderful weekend with the girl when I hit a 2x8 while running at a fair clip. It sounded like it popped the drive up, but low after powering down and checking it out, everything seemed to worked...

    Exhaust bellows allowing water into boat?

    Hi All- I have a 1985 Bayliner 1950 with an AQ125b and a volvo penta Aquamatic 270 outdrive. It's been taking on a good bit of water as I drive around (not so much when it's sitting, but definitely more than I'd like.) I just noticed that there was a 2 inch tear in the bottom of the...

    Boat taking on water- how to start fixing?

    OK, I have an 85 Bayliner Capri 1950, and I'm starting to be able to fix the problems that are just annoying, since I seem to have gotten all the ones that were stopping the boat. (Thanks to all on this forum who have helped.) This weekend's issue: When I'm cruising around the lake, it seems...

    AQ125B (85 Bayliner 1950 Capri) Overheat

    OK, I finally worked through my starter issues, and (painfully) my water contaminated gas issues, and it starts and runs perfectly now. For a minute or two, then it overheats (temp up to 200-220) and the cap blows coolant onto the engine block. It overheated in the driveway, after a minute...

    Volvo AQ125B with Solex carb- how does the accelerator pump hook to the carb base?

    Hi- I recently had the head rebuilt on my AQ125B, and I don't think the guy hooked the Solex carb back up correctly. Specifically, the pushrod, which moves with the throttle, that sticks through a hole at the base of arm on the accelerator pump. The pushrod just slides right through when...

    Volvo AQ125B stalls when revved cold...

    Hi- I have a 1985 Bayliner Capri 1950 with a Volvo Penta AQ125B... with an I/O sterndrive. This was an unmaintained boat until I got my hands on it last year, and I'm working down a list of issues... The problem I'm trying to address is mainly this: When starting cold, I can usually get it...

    Dashboard electrical problem

    Hi- I have a 1985 Bayliner Capri (19.5 foot). I was out enjoying a great day on the lake sunday, when I stupidly decided to to try to diagnose an occasional start problem. (Sometimes you would have to giggle the bottom of the fuse panel before it would turn over- just got the boat 4 weeks...
