    Alternator noise

    The alternator on my port crusader 350 model engine will squeal or whine when under a load, only for a few moments then goes away. It’s quiet when at idle. What causes this? Thanks!

    flushing out the salt water

    This is what we ended up adding when the risers and elbows were done. I like the idea of suction from a pail (same way i winterize) that way no worries about pressure, also I could just add some salt-away to the pail. I do have a fresh water source in the engine room so this should work out good...

    another high oil pressure question

    My IV gen 454 port engine has high oil pressure, 80psi. I put a mechanical gauge on it and it reads 66psi. Not sure how I should proceed from here. Seems to run fine otherwise, It's a fairly low time engine, running Rotella 15/40.
