You just saved me over $4,000. Thats the estimate I received from the boat mechanic. My boat is now running better than ever. Thank you

Good work mate for having a go at it yourself, helping each other out with a bit on knowledge is what it’s all about.

Thanks man!!! I will try cleaning out my carburetor

excellent job there....well done

THANKS GREAT VIDEO

Awesome!!!

You need to take a look at your cutoff switch, when going from neutral into gear it stalls the motor to make the shift easy, when its not tuned it will ground out your ignition and cause the engine to die when shifting.

Thanks I’ll take a look at that next time it has problems.

This is the same thing going on with my boat

Same thing happened to me but in the water

99 Dodge pickup what color are the fuel pump

When you push the throttle, does it feel stiff? mine is stiff, I was wondering if that's normal. thanks for the video, very interesting.

It was a bit stiff, I lubricated all moving parts & tried getting some spray up the cables. That improved it enough to live with, you can also disconnect the cables & make sure everything in the motor moves freely- then you’ll know what part it causing the problem. Hope that helps

What kind of spray did u pit in the cables? (Break cleaner? Silcone spray?)

my boat bogged out on me this weekend would idle and run great then got to a sand bar hung out for a while when shifting into gear and giving it throttle it would bog out. took gas cap off and it took off like a scalded dog

Interesting, must have a blocked breather. Where I live the wasps in summer will make mud nests in any little hole they can find, my chainsaw wouldn’t start & sure enough the exhaust was blocked with wasp nests.

Where did he get the first part from , doesn’t look familiar on my 350 5.7 ??

Hi, it’s a 1999 5.0L Mercruiser, the 350 might have a different manifold carb setup. My other 350 is fuel injected which then the stalling is probably shift cable adjustment like the last comment suggested. Hope that helps..

Just bought a boat it runs fine at idle put it in gear and give it lil or to much throttle and it, I had my uncle looking in the carb when I start it he said the jets was not spraying he tap it with a screwdriver and the jet start spraying but it still wasn’t enough to keep the engine on

Hi, sounds like a similar problem, best to pull carb apart, clean & even put a new gasket kit through it if you don’t know the service history. Also check clean or replace fuel filter & water trap if it has one..

It’s your shift cables I just had my boat fixed same set up 1998 crownline

Shift cables are good, was just carburetor, runs perfectly now

I've got a problem where if I pump the throttle all the way forward, a small amount of fuel will squirt into the intake, enough to start the engine, but then it only runs for a few seconds. Fuel pump?

Could be fuel pump mate, be a matter of elimination. I’d start by disconnecting the line & put it into a bottle and see if it pumps fuel with nice flow, if that’s all working then time to pull the carburetor apart, might just be a stuck needle & seat.. let me know how you go.

Hi, haven’t worked on that engine but if it’s old school & not fuel injection, I’d start with the fuel system, check fuel filter, fuel quality, pull carburetor and clean all jets. Then electrics , spark plugs, coil, distributor leads etc. Depending on carby , the secondaries maybe blocked only giving half throttle, if it’s electric injection could be some limp mode etc
