Thanks, should I just look for a hole and stick a screwdriver in it?

Thanks, it’s telling me the picture is too big to attach but it’s a Quicksilver 3000 Classic side mount control

I have a 1999 Force 120 with side mounted control. If I don’t hold the throttle down the rpms will decrease.

Where can I adjust the tension?

That is my thought too. Thanks Don

This one shows the fuse box with four 20a fuses

My manual shows them inline and all 20a. Mine are in a block. Which one should be 15a?

The air and fuel pressure is good,there’s about a 10 pound difference between the two on each engine. I tried to see if the local Mercury shop could scan them but they said it will be two weeks. I’ll...

Lows pressure fuel pumps got them running. Added a heavy dose of Mercury Quik Clean but the starboard motor doesn’t like to idle

Thanks Don, I pulled the pump off the motor that was recently running.

I’m going to soak it in a couple of inches of Seafoam and see if it frees up.

By the way this boat is within walking distance to the biggest Mercury dealer around. I asked them if they could hook the computer up to it and they told me they won’t look at it and less it’s running

Thanks Don

I took one of them out and connected right to my truck battery and it just clicks in both directions. I’m going to have to assume it’s jog. When I replace it can I use normal hose...

I haven’t had a chance to put gauges on these engines but the fuel rails do have pressure. I put 12 V to the high-pressure pumps and they both spin and then to the low pressure pumps and they just...

Understood.

By the way I do have the factory manual but its made for mechanics which I am not. Been getting some good advice here though and Im determined

Thanks Don, I definitely need to get back into that VST tank and replace the needle and seat. Then Ill look at the injectors.

Can I use two separate gauges to test the air and gas pressure at the...

Thanks Don, I noticed today my problem engine was spitting fuel out the VST vent hose so first thing will be to get back into that

Engine sat for two years and cranks but injector don’t open. They only have 1/2v going to them.

Crank position sensor has no continuity when engine is cranked. Is that...

I get that, but those things aren’t that easy to follow and a little guidance from people who do it every day would make things much easier. I might have to have a Merc dealer hook up a DDT to it and...

OK I took off the number three injector and I’m getting less than one volt when cranking

I did a search and found a 9v battery will test the injectors. I don’t think they’re the issue though as the port engine runs perfectly.

Is it the ECM that controls them? Is there a harness that...

One more, what activates the injectors and is there a way to test them?
