    Question for the carburetor experts

    Rebuilding the Weber WFB 4-bbl on my 7.4l. I've done lots of automotive carbs including Webers, but this one has thrown me a curve. The manuals all refer to a "spring and check ball" or "check ball and weight" under the accelerator pump nozzles. Upon disassembly, I found neither - just a...

    Chart table help

    This goes out to anyone who has the little chart table on top of their helm console. I just had a new piece of clear Plexiglass cut to replace my chart table cover, and of course I lost my mental notes of how everything was put together. If someone could post a pic or description of the hinge...

    Potable Water Plumbing

    Many of our boats, including my '96 270 Sundancer, were plumbed with CPVC tubing and fittings made by Genova Products. I just got word that Genova went Tango Uniform earlier this year. Anyone have experience with Whale Marine Products? So far it's the closest I can find to Genova and it appears...

    Tilt/trim sender and limit switch

    My gut tells me one thing but my budget says another... What has been everyone's experience with aftermarket trim senders? I read a lot of reviews on eBay/Amazon about cheap senders being mislabeled, broken on arrival, poor construction, leaks, etc., but often as many good reviews. Does...

    Seeking Bravo drive opinions

    I just acquired a beautiful 1996 SRV270DA Sundancer. Beautiful boat with almost every option available including the 7.4 liter with a Bravo III drive. The drive experienced a major "OOPS" during trailering when the drive "somehow" went to the full-down position (that's the story I was told...

    Project in jeopardy

    My 1985 SRV 250 Sundancer project was going well until I came up against a badly corroded exhaust Y-pipe. This is the 3" version for a 350 Chevy to Alpha 1 (260R power package). Lots of searching online reveals that it is made of unobtainium. Anyone have a good source for used/salvage parts?

    Crazy man with a project

    I literally "rescued" a 1985 SRV 250 from a slow, in-water death at a marina in Los Angeles Harbor populated with derelicts and future artificial reefs. This was one of those "Boat Angel" auction boats, mine for the bargain price of $169.16. Pretty rough shape, but intact enough to make it...
