For me routine would be to first change the VST filter (inspect VST for debirs and clean), change plugs and gap accordingly, change T-stats, replace poppit valve, clean cold water strainer, change...
use the Merc coils
you will want to pull the lower to verify there is no damage at the top of the driveshaft or take it to a merc dealer and they can inspect. if you have insurance you can file a claim on the lower
No sir, figured I would try a new sender before exploring a new gauge
Update, replaced the trim sender and the problem went away. Smartcraft gauge is working again
is there a merc bulletin for the .044 gap? My dealer was saying there was no bulletin and the gap should be .032
I have the white tach and speedometer
2007 300 XS SN#1E002970, my smartcraft gauge started acting up last week, it will only read trim (numbers bounce all over the place) and the mode button will not cycle the gauge. How do I trouble...
Found a TM with a 20" shaft, anyone have a ballpark cost to have dealer install a 25" shaft?
Thank you, sir
one more question, guys. Will a TM lower unit off a 250 pro xs fit my 300 XS
is this lower (XL) better than the torquemaster, or a better option for my situation? It's cheaper than the TM
2007 300 XS SN#1E002970, I'm searching for a replacement lower unit, can someone explain fat shaft? I'm seeing a few for sale with a fat shaft and some without. How can I tell if my current lower...
2007 300 XS SN#1E002970, was running back in today around 45 mph when all heck broke loose, prop did not want to turn anymore. Got it back to the trailer and now have a broken torque master lower...
For mine the accessory fuse is called 'accessory and power trim fuse', it's a 20 amp fuse that when blown will kill power to the key switch. I would look for chaffed wires for the power trim on the...
seems normal, when was the last water pump serviced?
I was thinking of getting a new coil harness just to make sure, thanks for sharing
My Mercury dealer called and said that one of the problems was a bad throttle switch. The other problem was the amount of carbon build up on the plugs and that the plugs were gapped wrong and should...
Well that did not last long. As stated above it ran great for one outing, took it out the next day to chase cobia along the beaches and she struggled to get on plane. Motor would cut in and out,...
Water tested today and engine ran good and pulled strong. Seemed like a new ignition and new coil for #5 did the trick for now
I just did mine, pretty simple as stated above. I actually removed the lower cowling to have easier access to the run the wires
This afternoon I performed a continuity test on each pin on the coil I removed and one pin did not pass the required Ohms per the Mercury service bulletin. I did not see any visible cracks in that...
Agreed, just don't want to be towed in again
There was a little bit of debris in the VST, I actually removed the VST and cleaned it out. I tested the coils while on the hose, how do you test them while running? Stuttering would occur...
