Carver Owners Forum

Anyone know of diagrams for engine , charging, starting etc.

Are you looking for wiring schematics or just parts diagrams or both?

Both please

For a Crusader "350", you need to specify if that's a 350CI or 350HP. They're different engines. One is a small block and one is a big block.

That said, the basic circuits for starting and charging are very similar and also very simple. There are a number of places online you can download the Crusader service manuals for free, you just have to poke around a bit to find them.

Does your engine have an ECU or fuel injection? If not, the diagram below might work, but it's from a '92

They are both big blocks (350ci), fuel injection I believe

350CI is not a big block, it's the "original" small block motor. 454CI is the typical big block from GM and what Crusader uses in their "350HP" motors. I think the Crusader 350CI motor is 260 or 270HP but could range a bit higher or lower depending on the year and exact model.

It will get confusing and frustrating if you're not really clear on what motors you have, as folks will respond with answers to what they THINK you have which may or may not be accurate.

I have 350XL in my 95 330. They are not FI. I do have the owners manual, and I believe their is a wiring schematic in the manual. If you are FI, I believe the engine model number is 350XLi. Let me know if this is what you need and I can send or text the diagram. er

Probably should clarify if it's a 94 or 96 too. In the early 80's pretty much everything was carbs and points. In the 2000s everything was FI and electronic ignition. In the 90's a LOT of things were changing year to year.

Yup around 94 or so carbs started to give way to throttle body injection that stayed for a while then went to MPI maybe around 98 to 2000. All depends on model and engine choice.

More info for sure is needed.

Thanks everyone for your help! So I need the engine starting and charging wire diagram for a 94 mariner 330 with dual 350xli engines.
