Had a customer came with a starting issue only to find the engine has at some stage been under water and the starter full of water, there is engines out there that went under in the floods I'm thinking this was one of them. Still runs with a bit of bearing noise but the were a tough engine.

Did a well looked after cruise craft at bribie Island, there is corrosion control anodes behind the rocker cover that need checking as well as the block anodes, but if they are covered in grease they can't do there job so clean and replace as needed.

Please do not grease fuel filter elements, grease does not dissolve in fuel and when it is done up squeezes into the fuel system and blocks the filter and fuel system, lubricate the rubber seals with 2 stroke oil only and change the filter on annual services or 100hrs, or if it is contaminated.

The boost pump in this 300XS Optimax has had a load of bad fuel go threw it at some stage and because they are at the bottom of the VST they are susceptible to failure due to contamination. Had fun test driving it though forgot how much fun these millennium hulls are.

This L4 150hp verado came in with power issues and an annual service, I found the power issue was a broken rubber boot for the intake manifold sensor, it's a fairly common problem and there is an updated part for replacement, fitted new boot and service, problem fixed.

Been doing a lot of the mercury v6 and V8s lately and finding the gearbox and anodes not being removed and greased on the 100hr service, they don't come from the factory greased so the salt builds up around the studs and makes the box hard to get off, the spline needs to be greased at the same time. Anode bolts need to be greased as well or they will break trying to get them out when the Anode needs replacing.

Love the old school engines, but I am still finding this fuel line in boats , check your fuel line, if it is grey with red mercury writing on it it will be disintegrating and going threw the fuel system.

There is a nice modification that can be done on the mercury 40hp XR lightning that makes them go a whole lot harder, some adjustments and timing well worth the effort.
