    POS 340

    A lot of boats (not all) on Lake St Clair are owned by young party people who use them to go hang out at the Moot. Boat maintenance is not a priority to them.

    Stuck prop

    I have a 1988 Express Cruiser 340. I wanted to pull my props for the winter and get them tuned up. The port prop came off with a little heat and a good tap with a hammer. The starboard side is stuck. I’ve used three different pullers with two map gas torches at the same time. It will not budge...

    It’s alive! The pick up in the distributor was bad. Put a new quicksilver unit in there and fried right up. Thanks for all the good advise.

    Well, I swapped the port and starboard ign module, nothing, the one on the port motor is now on the starboard motor and is running.

    1988 Express Cruiser 340. Port engine just quit and won’t start

    Looking at the previous post, I have not checked the pick ups and the rotor. The test procedure indicated above leads me to believe that’s the next thing I’ll be doing.

    1988 Express Cruiser 340. Port engine just quit and won’t start

    Hi all. Was under way yesterday and the port engine just dies. Fired back up several times now it just won’t do anything. It’ll crank over good, just nothing. Checked the gas, it’s good and get into the carb. Swapped coils from starboard to port, nothing. Port coil runs the SB engine. Swapped...

    The big old 80's 340 owners thread

    Yes, it has the easier access along the sides of the v berth. The more I check this boat out, the more I love it.

    The big old 80's 340 owners thread

    Hello all, Well I guess I have 7 footidis. Started out with a 1985 20’ Baja then moved up to a 1986 268 Sundancer , just sold that, now I’m ready to buy a 1988 340 EC upon successful sea trial in the spring. I’ve read all the posts on this thread and I have to ask, is there anything else to...

    My $500 270DA.

    I have a 1986 268 Sundancer and I found the the Interlux Brightside Y4218 Hatteras Off White (1990) is as close to a match as I could find. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    no speed, feels like slipping

    Take a paint pen and put a line on the coupler down to the input shaft. Take it out and if the coupler is slipping, the paint line will be broken. Time for a new coupler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1988 268 Sundancer - rain water issues

    I get the same thing. Where I see it coming in is at the air intake and exhaust hoses air boxes that connect to out side vents. Those air boxes get brittle and crack so they don't fit tight on the vents. I always get water on hull sides where there's a "channel" and then it goes into the bilge...

    Knocking noise in the area of my coupler??

    Put a line with a paint pen, on the coupler on down to the shaft. Run it around for a while and see it the line is separated. If it is, then you'll know it's the coupler. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    97 350 vortec engine knock only under load?

    Sounds like a wrist pin, that'd knock under a load. Eventually it'll start doing all the time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
