Im helping a friend put his engines back together after doing the heads but he never marked the distributors when he took them out. I have the engines at #1 TDC on compression stroke but there are no numbers on the distributor caps so I need to know what position the rotor should be pointing for...

Does anyone know where to get hatch handles, support rods and seals for the Taylor made hatches that came with the 340s? Taylor made says they're no longer available. Is there an aftermarket for these parts? I can only find the parts for the newer TM hatches. Thanks

I'm in the process of replacing my aluminum water tank with a poly tank and Im trying to figure out the best way to plumb the pickup/supply tube in the new poly tank. The old aluminum tank had a tube welded into it that went into the lowest corner of the tank. Wondering how others have done...

What is the "accessory" breaker supposed to control on the main breaker panel of my 88 340 Express Cruiser? Mine doesn't seem to do anything. Thanks

Im getting prices on new canvas and so far one guy suggested raising it up a bit and making it go to the arch instead of just using the factory bimini bars that are kind of low so I would have more headroom. It would also give me bigger strataglass windows around the sides and small windows...

I just removed the old Loran off my 340 to make room for a new GPS. Its a Micrologic Mariner loran navigator. Before I throw it out I was just wondering if there was any market for these older units. As far as I know its completely useless but just want to make sure. Also looking for a new...

I need new risers on my 7.4L Mercruisers and I found used stainless steel mercruiser risers for sale for cheaper than the new Barr cast risers. I would imagine this would be the best way to go since the rest of the engines are FWC and with stainless risers, in theory I would never have to touch...

2 Groco 1-1/4" SV-1250 seacocks. Bead blasted bronze. Rubber in good usable shape. Use for parts or as-is. Everything is free and turns smoothly. One has some gouges from removal but does not affect operation. Came off 88 340 EC. $100 for pair.

Im reading through the owners packet from my recently purchased 340 EC and it mentions a recessed can opener. I cant find it. Does anyone know where it is or where its supposed to be?

The keypad is bad on my original Panasonic microwave so im going to replace it. Is there anything special about this microwave or can I replace it with anyone from the store as long as dimensions are good? Does anyone know of a known brand/model that is a good replacement for this? Thanks

My wooden footrest at the helm of my 340 snapped in half. How is the wood secured into the fiberglass, glue? Is there a replacement piece available for this or should I just make a new one out of starboard? Thanks

Does anyone know what the service interval is for the timing belt on the 6.5kw Westerbeke generator? Ive heard its 1000 hours but im not sure. The boat is 30 years old now with only 470 hours on the generator. Should I replace it based on time since its probably original? Also who is a good...

Hi Im looking at a 1988 340 Express with 454 Mercruisers with 1300 hours on them. I am a little concerned with the hours. What is average life expectancy of these engines provided they were properly maintained? Ive read well over 2000 and ive also read that they will need valve jobs right around...
