I have a 38’ Sundancer with 8.1 HO’s.
Both engines at same time shut down.
I will get a system beep and both will shut down. No codes will come up. It is at Random times but mostly just after start up. Most times all gauges shut down and engines stay running. Only few times engines shut down as...
I have a 2006 38' Sundancer, both engines shutdown running at about 2000 RPM's.
I have heard a beep and have seen both engine gauges drop but never have had the engines both just shutdown underway?
Any ideas?
Ground fault but both engines do this at same time.
First time shutting down on me. But...
I just had the injectors done and fuel pressure regulator. Merc Cruiser had a recall on my year 8.1.
I took boat out after and did not notice first run because i did not go over 3200 RPM.
The next time i used i went WOT and thats when I noticed the fluctuating RPM at 3600 to 4000 RPM.

I have a 2006 Sundancer 38’.
8.1 HO engines just had injectors cleaned.
When I hit about 3600 to 4000 RPM
The port engine RPM drops to 3000 then back up then drops to 3000 then back up?
Any ideas what would cause this pulsating RPM
I lost power steering this weekend.
I have the hydraulic cap at the helm behind steering wheel.
Heading out the rudder was at 27 degree's when turning the wheel it did not show it was moving on the gage.

Thinking it might be low fluid but its a closed system so not...
I am looking to paint my 2006 38’ Sundancer’s engine compartment and a few other compartments that have chipped paint.

I want to match colors as close as possible and want something to adhere well.
MY 2006 - 38' Sundancer Starboard anolog fuel gage stopped working.
Is this a grounding isuue or do I need a new float sending unit?
The electronic gages work and show how much fuel I have.
New to me boat so I am new to this.
ok, the boat after injectors were cleaned today ran Amazing.
2500 RPM to over 4500 and humming like a bird.
So, I am learning so much about these 8.1 HO motors.
The injectors were so badly clogged they were causing much more noise and vibration. Also noise from the V drives it sounded like...
So my flow test reads:
45 PSI static flow test - LB/HR
at 45 PSI - all Injectors are between 37.7 and 38.5 PSI
Is this an acceptable flow rate?
Before cleaning they were at 7.0, 20.0, 18, 19, 37, 37.5, 37.2, 37.4.
What should the PSI be at the fuel injectors on an 8.1 HO 496 MAG?
I just sent out the injectors and 4 were not spraying good.
Had them cleaned and was told 36 PSI is what they are pushing?
1 was only spraying 7.
