View the latest post A Red Triangle ! on my EVC system display


The EVC system display is showing a Red Triangle and a !
I found this web site... http://www.iboats.com/Alarm-instrument/ ... _id.345197
and This link explains which alarm is sounding.
7 alarms:
1) Oil pressure
2) Water in fuel filter 1)
3) Battery
4) Coolant temperature
5) Coolant level 1)
6) Oil level 1)
7) Fault/serious fault

So the warning I am dealing with #6
Oil Level Sensors
and it appears to be on both engines.

has anyone experienced this?

View the latest post cleaning sea strainer on 1986 Mariner 3297


We are the proud new owner, and feeling kinda silly. Please tell me where the sea strainers for the engines are. One engine runs a little hot over 20 RPMs, and someone told me that could be the problem.

View the latest post Engine Hour Meter Running Fast


I have a Carver 406 with twin 7.4 Mercruisers. I keep a log when I cruise and noticed on the last two cruises of around two hours each that my port engine hour meter chocked up twice the hours of the starboard hour meter even though both engines have been used simultaneously. The starboard hour meter appears to be correct. Any ideas on how to fix the port hour meter?

View the latest post Attachment(s) New Owner


Last summer me and the wife sold our home and purchased a Carver 455 Aft cabin to live on. Recently re-built a ZF Gear which was quite an event removing it from the boat. Otherwise just small items no more than normal home repairs.

Nothing like watching the sunset over Lake Pontchartrain Slidell, LA :pirate:

View the latest post Volvo Penta 7.4L needed ASAP


Well, the good news is, we just bought a 2000 350 Mariner with only 300 hrs on port engine and 100 on starboard. Bad news is 300 hrs is all the port had left! 4 miles into the trip to bring it home, it threw a rod thru the block. Needless to say, we are beside ourselves, but the reality is, we need a complete engine replacement of an engine that is no longer made. Any ideas or knowledge with online engine companies that sell long blocks or complete reman engines? I need all the help I can get.
Thanks in advance,

View the latest post Replacing bulb above bed


One of the reading lights is out in the stateroom directly above the bed. I can't seem to figure out how to get at the bulb to replace? It's a round looking ball and can't pry it open. Anyone have this problem?

Thanks!
