If the boat has a blower for the engine compartment, TURN IT ON for several seconds before starting the engine(s), to clear out any fuel fumes that might have accumulated.
Run the blower. (To get the gas fumes out)
There are many different types of marine engines. However, they can be classified into three main categories. The first is the outboard engine, which sits outside on the hull of a marine vessel. The second is the inboard engine, which is enclosed inside the hull of the marine vessel. The third is the inboard/outboard motor, or the stern-drive engine, which is mounted inside the boat and has an additional unit that is attached to the transom.
Yes. Drive belts are what keep the engine parts working together in order. If the drive belt goes, the engine will crank with the key turned, but the engine will not "turn over."
A sterndrive is a propulsion system found on boats where an inboard engine is connected to a steerable drive unit mounted on the back of the boat. The engine's power is transferred to the propeller through a system of gears to propel the boat. The steerable drive unit provides directional control by pivoting left or right to steer the boat.
Jet drives are used commonly for boats designed for shallow water conditions. Jet boats can have inboard or outboard jet drives.
The short answer is no. Boats are made with outboard, inboard-outboard, a hybrid using an inboard engine driving a stern mounted shaft that looks like the lower end of an outboard. Others use inboard engines, typically larger cruiser and specialty ski boats. Personal watercraft use a inboard engine powering a water jet pump. This jet drive system is also used in some boats. Most smaller boats are powered by outboards. New large outboards up to 400HP permit larger boats some over 30 ft long to be outboard powered. Most mid-size boats from 18-30 feet are powered by inboard-outboard systems to take advantage of larger automotive engines.
Engine running rich. Get this fixed ASAP and do not drive until you do. Serious damage will occur to the engine. If you have electronic fuel ignition and you pump your gas pedal before starting, this can add un-burned fuel to your engine oil.
symptoms of a bad sensor will be , engine cutting out then starting again as you drive. cutting out then being able to restart when vehicle is stopped. hard starting. if left long enuff before replacing, you will not be able to restart
3900
depends on how you drive it and maintain it
Virtually all cars built before 1900 had chain drive, the engine had been mounted in the rear near the drive axles. As of 1910 most cars had the engine in the front, a drive shaft became more practical than chain drive.
Boat's outboard motor: a power unit and attached propeller mounted at the stern of a boat outside the hull.Think about like the Transmission and Differential in a car that drive the tires.Hope This Helps.==Another take...== An outdrive on a boat with an inboard engine is the part of the drive system that is attached to the external part of the hull and transom.
