Has any one tried replaced the wiring to these lights and their routing thru the boat to the lower helm? In the end I thin...

Turned on nav lights alone, same issue. Appears front nav lights are the problem. So, I'm thinking corroded l...

Re: distributor replacement M360

Yes stick with those distributors. We did our starboard engine in July. You can remove ballast resistor and ignition module. Clean up the wiring too. Check with beacon marine, they might have a use for those parts or any one else out there too. I'll do my port engine in spring. I did find less gas u...

Re: Engines Stalling

If you have the old distributors, time to consider the Pertronix dist. . I have 360's in our F32 and starboard had issues with stalling. After replacement, NO MORE ISSUES!

Re: Engines Quit When Warm

Hello, I had the same problem with my starboard 360 on a F32. After a lot of advice from some smart guys out there we replaced the old distributor with a Pertronix Marine Dist. Period, no more stalling or engine die when out after 45-60 minutes and it will make it easier coming back into dock. PS Bi...

Chrysler 360 impeller replacement

Hi Guys. New Trojan F32 boat owner here. I will be replacing both impellers on the chrysler 360 engines as soon as it warms up in WNY. I haven't ever done these. Does whole pump need to be removed to replace these impellers. I am open to all advice. Thank you.

Re: cleaning edlebrock carbs

Thanks for the replys. We used to use Fedron but that is outlawed now. Just having stall issues with the starboard engine at idle and under load.
Has any one pulled these Edlebrock Carbs apart?

Hey Rick, Nice boat and finish looks rich. How difficult was it to replace carpet?
Our F32 came with seafoam green carpet. A bit old.

Re: Upgrade to my F-32 galley

Nicely done. I agree, good improvement on a 40 year old boat. Adds value and class.
