Thanks again Larry. I installed it lflat out and tried it out and yep, that's it. I also cleaned out my flame arrester which was really filthy. She idles much nicer now. On the way to the dock as we speak!

Ugggg, running great all day, hours of tubing. Spent a couple hours at the beach, pushed off and headed back home and wham..... high rev and sudden over heat and loss of gear. She would not engage in forward or reverse. Then was hard to start but when she was cooled down and I got her to start, maybe an hour, when shifting into forward she would die out. Didn;t die out in reverse but neither would engage. Ahhhhhhhhhh

Man , I swear ya got either a thermostat sticking , a impeller at the drive that's going , or the impeller in the engine waterpump is bad.
Check the thermostat first Gin , then I'd check the engine waterpump , then the impeller at the drive.
I'd say 75% chance it's the drive impeller , but the other two are easiest to check first.

Thanks Larry. She will not engage in gear at all. Impeller would do that??

Re: Diablo 3.0 Power Options
 

That sounds more like a cable/adjustment issue. Check and make sure the cables aren't binding anywhere. Dis connect the throttle at the carb and see if she will shift then. if not disconnect the shift cable. You can narrow down which cable is is hanging up. If both cables are disconnected and you still can't shift , it's in the shifter itself , or possibly a cable is broke and binding in the sheath.

Well I just went out and took a quick look at the drive. Noticed the lower drive fluid leaking from the fill. Looks black. Also noticed the exhaust bellows torn and separated. FOund the small water hose disconnected. Also found what looks to be the old shift cable bellows in half and wedged between the drive and bellows but the shift cable had a solid bellows attached and in good shape??? UUUGGGGGGGGGGGG

Re: Diablo 3.0 Power Options
 

Small water hose is your heating issue. Does the shifter work in nuetral for the throttle?

Larry

Re: Diablo 3.0 Power Options
 

Yes. The throttle works and revs the engine in F and R but not engaging. Although I haven't started her up today after the fiasco.....

I think there is a lot going on and the season is really short so I've decided to bring a mechanic in. I will post results when I know what's up.
