Does this item look to be a replacement for the OEM valve?

U.S. Solid - 1/4" NPT Brass Electric Solenoid Valve 12VDC Normally Closed
$21.99 ea.
The only thing different is it doesn't look to have a manual bypass.
Only reason I ask is because all three of...
Ok guys, I need some help in routing the water lines from the engine to the water heater heat exchanger and back. Several years ago I had to remove these lines due to the fittings of my original water heater failing.
But now I'm in the process of replacing the port side engine with a brand-new...
Last summer I ended up going with Snap-In Carpet Flex Dek foam anti-slip flooring. Total cost for the 280DA cockpit was $1,932.60 complete. The template from their website lined up perfectly in my cockpit. They sent me plastic template of all of the piecesfirst, with the price of the template...
Trying to imagine how to pressure test the water system? Do you have any step-by-step procedures I could refer to? Not sure what I would have to block off, where to put a gauge, etc.
And I guess if it's a corroded head or blown gasket, that means engine replacement anyway.
When I had the exhaust components off, I could easily see these flappers. And they looked fine and operated fine when I pressed them and let them go. So I think they are OK.
And I have been *very* careful to slow down slowly to avoid any type of scenario where water can be backflushed up into...
This has been an ongoing saga for some time and I'm about over it. I'm looking for the easy way out that doesn't break the bank, but I'm guess there isn't one.
Back in early 2019 I changed all of the manifolds, risers and elbows on my 2003 280 Sundancer as a preventative method. No other real...
The OEM manufacturer for Sea Ray was Great Lakes Boat Top, I have ordered replacement canvas and cockpit covers from there a couple of times over the last decade.

Ok, so today I removed my starboard mult-gauge. I can't see where in the world a 194 bulb is?!! I'm guessing it must be inside? But...how do I get access to it?! I can't see anyway to crack it open. Do I have a different gauge that is non-serviceable? Any help would be appreciated!

Are those 194 bulbs the correct bulbs for the instrument gauges? My multi-gauge for the starboard engine has had the light out on it for years, never did investigate if I could access a bulb or what type it was. That would be fantastic if it was just a simple bulb.

Possibly a shift cable issue. In that second photo you took of the cables, figure out which one dives down and under the engine, towards the rear. That will be the one that goes to your sterndrive unit. Remove the locknuts (I think a 7/16" wrench) and cotter pin and see if you can move the inner...
Good luck! The shift shaft should move if you move the shifter, of course, in about a 30 degree arc if I recall. If you disconnect that cable, you can at least figure if the problem is the shift cable going down to the sterndrive, or the cable going up to the shifter itself.
To check fuel pressure you'll need a fuel gauge. There is most likely a shraeder valve located behind the throttle body, on the fuel rail. The fuel pressure gauge just screws on there.
Even if you have the cool fuel setup, you can still have a low pressure boost fuel pump upstream from the cool...
That's pretty cool. I have had the Apeiron tri-color lights in my arch (blue, red, white) for over a decade. They were well over $100 back then! And since they didn't match with the lower lights, I just had blue LED lights down there.
Between the two of you, you've found the perfect low-cost...
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "nor can I move the upper s.s. by hand". What is s.s.?
As mentioned previously, you'll need to remove the shift cable from the shift plate on the port engine. It's only held on by a couple of locknuts and a cotter pin. There will be three cables, the...
