Re: '97 Engine access Two batteries, both dual purpose on stb side getting replaced with one deep cell and one starter battery. Which way do I piggy back them? Starter battery then hang the deep cell off that? Or deep cell first then hang starter off deep cell Batt?

Re: '97 Engine access Hi All. Quick question on the emergency start. Port side, (1) new battery, no issues. Starboard batteries (2) are dead after a day on the hook with fridge and stereo. They need to be replaced, obviously. I use the emergency start to get STB started (after port side is...

Not sure about Jabsco, but my issue was resolved at the helm station. Pulled remote from dash, saw obvious bad connection.

Similar situation I had, but I was the bonehead. I thought I turned on the port ignition key, but nope. Would only start with the crossover, but would die when I let go of the switch. Could be the ignition switch?

My apologies for any confusion. Ran up to the marina this afternoon had the mechanic take a quick look. It's nice during the week when nobody is around. One gets moved to the front of the line for a quick check. It appears the outer plastic seal melted. some of it was wrapped around the...

It sings in forward/reverse at all speeds... :huh:

Hello All, I have a '95 370DA with 454 carbs. New props put on at beginning of the season. We were cocktail cruising about 1100 RPMs for a couple of hours yesterday. We had 10 people on board. Cubs game was going to start soon, so I hit the gas to get back to marina. We ran 3800 RPMs for a...

Thanks to TheWolf and Rubber Duckee for their advice on my VFH calbe route. Taking off the bolster is the key. From there i pushed my fish wire down the outside of the wire loom and was able to hook the wire with a hanger from the helm. At the helm, I took off all but the last screw of the...

At the helm there should be a switch on the left half of the panel labled lights with one of them being bilge. The bilge switch on the right side of the helm panel is for the actual bilge pump.

I had the same problem. STBD impeller was chewed up. Port side had air lock. +1 on strainers too.

Damn Rubber Duckee, you da man! Great idea. Weather here in Chicago was 40 and rainy all day so I sat home all day watching TV with the dogs. None of us wanted out. :smt001 I presume I'll be able to see how to get to the arch from there without having to take the bolster off?

Fine looking ride Ken. I'm on the Chain O'Lakes in a 370DA. Should you ever need/want experienced deck hands to join your crew give us a shout! /ed
