Great, thank you!
Yes, I have connected a brand new fuel line from remote tank directly to the motor, issue persists. I have also double checked my check valves and gasket/diaphragm orientation. Both check valves are...
Definitely not a primer issue. I've replaced the primer bulb twice.
I can prime the bulb until it's completely stiff right before starting the motor and it will idle for about 15 min before it...
I've tried that too but no difference.
Because after approx. 15 minutes at idle the motor will die and I have to prime the VST to get it to start again. Once on plane, no issues I can run all day.
I have hooked up to a remote tank,...
No issues starting, no miss. I'm turning a 24p fury at 5800RPM at WOT.
I see. I replaced the plugs back in March. Haven't checked the coils but if one was bad wouldn't I see a loss of power at WOT?
Ignition coils? What relation do they have to the pulse pump? (Trying to get a better understanding of how these motors work.)
If the reeds still have plenty of life at 350hrs then I would prefer to only replace what is needed. My biggest concern is getting into the disassembly or reassembly and finding out there is a step...
That's correct, I had to remove the throttle body to fit my hand down in there. I'm aware that there's a bit of blowback, but it feels like there is more warm air coming back out of that particular...
When the motor is running at idle speed, I can put my hand in the air intake and put my fingertips up against the reeds where I can feel a little bit of warm air blowing back out of the 2nd to last...
Hi Everyone, I have been tracking down an idle speed fuel flow issue and after rebuilding the pulse pump and replacing fuel lines I'm now planning to replace my reeds as there seems to be one that is...
Finally had a chance to get out after replacing the bad check valve in the pulse pump but unfortunately the issue still persists. Now I need to check my reed valves but can't find any how-to videos...
Update: Think I may have solved the issue. After hooking up to a remote tank with no change, I spoke with a Mercury mechanic and was told I could possibly have a broken reed valve but to double check...
Not a quicksilver bulb but the issue has continued with 3 different bulbs, 2 of which are brand new. Unfortunately I don't have a remote tank to test with.
Between my fuel tank fitting and the fuel line is this part: BK0280004 1PSI Anti Siphon Demand Valve (ASDV) 3/8” NPT, 3/8” Barb
I'm no boat mechanic but I'm assuming this is essentially a fuel...
I see the two wires but not sure what I should be checking exactly. There are no alarms sounding when running the engine and I don't see any leakage from the VST.
Will do, thanks!
Even when priming right before starting the engine, it will only idle for about 10-15 minutes before it dies.
Hi, I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this question so please let me know if I should move it. Some time last year I was idling out of a long no wake zone and suddenly my engine died and...
Hi Everyone,
I have a 2017 Legend V20 I purchased just over a year ago. I am swapping out an SLA cranking battery for an AGM and I know I need to switch the battery type on my charger but I'm not...
Kit ordered, thanks for the help!
Hi All,
I'm having a fuel flow issue at idle speeds. In neutral it will run for about 10 minutes before cutting off but a few squeezes to the fuel primer bulb and it will fire right back up. It...
Found the T connectors under the console behind my dash mounted HDS unit. There's a broken T connector and blown fuse so I'm guessing that's the issue. New connector ordered so we'll see in a couple...
Hi All,
I purchased a 2017 V20 just under a year ago and have been having some power issues. The boat came with a 31 size AGM cranking battery which was old so I replaced it with a 31 size SLA....
