Mercruiser 5.7 bilge water leak problem. Started the engine on the hard with muffs attached.
Let her run until 160 temperature achieved. Removed the drain plug and water drained for about 30 seconds. Obviously I have a problem. like a leaking hose, but where? As per the pic attached, I have 3...
Wrapped my outdrive in a plastic garbage bag for winter storage,
Removed it yesterday and found some gear oil inside the bag.
What tests should I perform to find the source of the leak?
Thanks for any information.
Need some help here. My Clarion radio in my Searay DB400 Sedan Bridge was working fine 2 weeks ago. Today I power it up and the display lights up but no sound is coming out of the forward or aft speakers. It is not on mute so I ruled that out.
Anyone have any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
I am seriously considering taking a sabbatical for boating this season.
Water levels are high and due to the BEAST (Covid), a late launch is in order.
Shorter season, launch and haul out and unshrinking and reshrinking in a short time frame doesn't seem worthwhile.

My systems monitor has not functioned for 2 years.
This year, after splashing the boat and turning on all the breakers, magically the monitor starts flashing All System Normal and the screaming buzzer is back.
Have searched many threads for a resolution but strangely, it resolved on it's own...
Weather conditions are horrible. Launching is doubtful fo at least 10 days.
High water and flooding with much debris making a delayed season start.
Tell May to go away!!!
Anybody else in the same boat? (PUN)
My inboard outboard tilt drive on my 240 Sundeck rises easily but takes much longer to descend back down.
Anybody aware of the possible cause and cure?
Much appreciated.
Yesterday was the worst. For the last couple of times we used the boat, there was a hesitation and a weird bad noise in the middle of the starting cycle. I would shut it down and restart with no issues.
Yesterday the problem persisted after the 2nd and 3rd and 4th attempts. At one point it...
My guest head cycles for about 5 seconds intermittently like every 2 hours.
However it cycles for about 20 seconds upon turning on the breaker after a couple of absentee days. The bowl stays full of water so the leak is not caused by the seal.
I know there is a leak somewhere and hating hit and...
My 400DB 2001 Sedan bridge has a squealing noise happening when any water source is being used. I believe it to be a defective water pressure regulator. It is where the water inlet is located.
Anybody have any advice?
Thanks
There is a bilge pump and a float switch under the starboard side second stateroom bed.
My sump drain overflowed due to a malfunction and the water flowed down to that pump under the bed. However that pump did not activate. Made for a messy cleanup.
Anybody ever have this problem and if so how...
My 400 DB with 454 mercs acted up today.
The port engine started as usual. The starboard engine showed no voltage on the dash gauge and did not even click. With the port running I hit the emergency switch and the starboard switch together and she started however when I released the ES, the...
There are two heads on our boat. The master head kaklunks for 20 seconds but the guest head continues for about one minute.:huh:
I was thinking it might be a duckbill issue but any input is appreciated.
Thanks
Need recommendations for sunscreen shading fabric that remains opaque and blocks the heat generated by the sun.
