Re: How many hours on your Mariah??
I had to go and look and I have 761 hrs. on my 93 1900Z! This is the fourth summer I've had it and it still runs awesome. As far as I know it still has the original4.3 lx and Alpha 1 outdrive but after the first summer I had to put 3 grand into the out drive ( lack of maint. from previous owner) but it was well worth it. Love My Mariah!!:D

Re: How many hours on your Mariah??
Hi skytop95,
If you don't have one on the dash, check around the top of your motor. If you con't see it there, it is likely that you don't have one. Good news is they are easy to install if you still want one. WetWilly |
Re: How many hours on your Mariah??
I just went over the 777 mark this year tuning it up. I think the guy before me left the key on and idled it a lot for the stereo. I was worried buying it with 700+ last year but it runs great. Anyone know what to look out for when the hours get up there? Is there a programmer you can use to see the actual hours on the PCM computer.

Re: How many hours on your Mariah??
If it's fuel injected, the # of hours is stored in the computer and can be read out by a mercury service person.
I'm a little suspect of my # of hours, as my hour meter also runs with the key in the accessory position (engine off). Anytime you are sitting and chillin with the stereo, the meter is running... Compression test would be one way of determining how "tired" the engine is. |

Re: How many hours on your Mariah??
I guess I don't get the importance of the number of hours on an engine other than knowing maintenance intervals, which are usually done annually on a boat.
My truck is a 2003. I drive it to work 10 miles a day. It has 2,000 hrs on it. It runs perfect and I expect to get many more years of use out of it. 200 or 300 hrs on a boat engine seem insignificant if the engine is properly cared for.:wink_thumbup: Rick |
