    Mystery power drain

    But if everything is powered off, no radio memory drain... Where is it going? It should be zero. (And was for a long time)

    Mystery power drain

    That is correct. Seems to work out to one amp/hour every 33 hours.

    Mystery power drain

    Yes, to clarify, no usb charger is on the boat now.

    No accessories plugged it. Including USB port. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Mystery power drain

    Thanks. I expect I'll continue to attack over the fall and winter as weather improves.

    Mystery power drain

    Yes, sorry, I did do that, and it read at the battery, that's how i was troubleshooting. The pain of course is that each item must be disconnected vs clamped on, which I hoped would yield a faster find.

    Mystery power drain

    Hello Folks, This will be a slow hunt, as it's too hot and I don't have much time with all the boating I'm trying to get in before summer's over...BUT Something is taking 0.03 Amps of power when the master switch is enabled to a battery,, and everything else is switched to off. Everything is...

    Replacing decal on my 230...any advice

    I took the decals off mine and it looks great. I much prefer it. Just a thought.

    Reverse bucket linkage rubber seal

    How did you install it? Did you shrink it with the steering all the way to the right? That sounds pretty cool.

    Did this engine run earlier this year?

    The engine serials are in labels inside the engine and could be in your title depending on your state. The real question is, if it was swapped, can you do anything about it at this stage? Too bad the mechanic was a fraud, but the important thing is what you can do going forward.

    Reverse bucket linkage rubber seal

    I used a tie rod boot with zip ties and filled with grease. So far cables are very slick still. That little plastic piece functions for a few months.

    Installing ar230 impeller shaft

    I don't think that would work as the impeller shaft is inserted into the intermediate bearing shaft. This must be installed from the back of the boat into the intermediate shaft and bearing.

    Installing ar230 impeller shaft

    One thing you can do if you get frustrated because there's no progress after trying for some time.... You can separate the pump into it's basic sections and only insert the pump first, leaving out the nozzle and gate. This makes the piece much lighter and easier to maneuver. Once the pump is in...

    Finally, return to boating

    That's quite an upgrade. Congratulations!

    Speedster 1995 raw gas pours in cylinder when turning over need help

    Carbs need a rebuild?

    Installing ar230 impeller shaft

    If you measured well, and the shaft is protruding the right length... There's grease and a seal on there.... You can have someone rotate the impeller while you push... Same advice for other insertions.. lubricate, rotate and jiggle... Should go in eventually. Maybe also shine a light and...

    Motor not responding to No Wake Mode Inputs

    No wake requires certain TPS reading before it will engage. Maybe throttle was a little sticky and open more than permitted? If it's all working well now, just keep an eye on it. If you are very curious and have YDS for your boat, you could read the tps voltage and degree position at idle from...

    syphoning gas ....

    I thought it was a once a year thing or once a lifetime situation. You could plumb a T connector and feed from there for a permanent solution, but there's a reason more people don't do it. Dealing with gas in containers is heavy, boring and smelly at best, and it goes down from there. Full...

    syphoning gas ....

    I don't know for how long it will remain active, but you can disconnect the fuel line from the engine and set the switch to ON. At least some fuel comes out until you cut the power. I realized when removing the throttle assembly to adjust the throttle sensor, then keyed to on to check the...
