Mine came with the turbulator/gasket as well I think that is what you see there. That was a high heat sealant that was used between the 2 gaskets that came with the kit.
Has anyone pressure tested their stainless risers for the 8.1 motors as part of preventative maintenance? I changed the manifold’s 3 years ago and have taken these off to make a visual inspection of the exhaust and saw the following. Im curious if this is indicating the welds are getting weak...
Hi everyone, I have been looking all over the forum for any reviews on the hurley h20 davit system that may have been installed on a 2003 and up 340DA and have come up with some posts but with dead ends. Has anyone installed this system and how difficult has pulling your tender up with the...
Sorry to make a mountain of an ant hill, I got fat finger problems and was just easier removing the filter for me. Everyone is different, i still also have a pressure discrepancy between the two motors as my new sensor shows lower psi at idle and under load but both motors are not struggling and...
I was able to replace it by removing the fuel/water filter, small pair of vice grips will do the trick. The cheap sensor was given to me by the owner I bought from, he didnt really know too much about it. I wish you luck. This forum helped me a ton over the off season.
I just went crazy on my new to me 04 over the winter. The sb side water pressure sensor needs to be replaced. Purchase an oem mercury sensor. The cheap ones on amazon will not work. I learned the hard way.

Hello again everyone. So over the past year I have done a ton of preventative maintenance work that has been neglected by the past two owners. Seems to me like they just pushed the start buttons and went. Manifolds, shaft seals, transmission rebuild, rudders repacked, shafts and props sent out...
04 340DA. After a rain storm I noticed water in the bilge but not in the part of the bilge where my pumps are. The boat is still on the hard so its not coming from being in the water. Any ideas?
Hey everyone, as the winter goes on I am in the process of rounding up my new electronics to replace the c80 chartplotter and raymarine dome on my 2004 DA340 Couple questions,
1 When connecting the new radar and garmin mfd can I just follow the original power wires from the old gear and simply...
Thanks for the reply! I am replacing the seals because prior to purchase i had a survey complete on the boat with the port seal being in need of replacement as there was always an amount of water inside under that transmission after use. I looked for the spare seals and could not find them. With...
Im sure there are plenty on this thread that had to have their dripless shaft seals replaced. Well beyond my capabilities and will be having this done. What is the approximate cost to have the seals replaced in total? Mind you the boat has already been hauled and is stored at my house so the...
I noticed that pivot bolt would not slide out which in turn is going to make it even more fun when I may have to swap out those alternators. Ive hit them with pb blaster.
Hi guys, im a pretty handy person when it comes to basic preventative maintenance and what not but this has me stumped. Last weekend the idler pulley on my starboard 8.1s froze and subsequently failed causing me to limp in on one motor. I purchased all new pulleys and installed the new ones on...
