    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    OK... Started to pull the exhaust manifold and realized I never revisited the leakdown test on #4. Will I still be able to do the leakdown on #4 with the manifold off? Cleaned the gasket areas on the manifold and block. My gasket didn't look too bad and, as I started scrubbing it, the...

    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    Longest I've had the boat in the water, in the year I've owned it, was one week. After running her each day, I'll flush and tilt the engine up. Otherwise it's on a trailer in a yard... or in my driveway since October! Ha! Soon it will be on a lift in the backyard. Previous owner had it in...

    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    All was well until a few days ago. I noticed the idle was just slightly off and chalked it up to sitting idle for a few months while I did the SB 56. Took her out and she was running fine for about 15 minutes. As I came up on plane the buzzer activated and the motor went into safe mode. No...

    Remove intake manifold for '06 BF225 fuel pump filter?

    Scratching my head... I ordered the fuel pump filter (#7 in first link) and the fuel pump insulator (#29 in second link). Appears the only way to get to these is by removing the intake manifold, correct? I was under the impression I could access from above, but the throttle body looks to be in...

    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    Here are a few of the plugs... And under the cowling at the area of the VST. I checked the thermostat housings (looked fine - no signs of water leaking) and, looking further back beyond the areas around the VST, I didn’t not see any signs of water leaks from behind the manifold cover...

    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    So pulled the plugs and they were dry. Drained the oil and, see photo, I thought a barista was making a fancy cappuccino for me! Flushed the engine with 4 quarts. Shunted the service connection and got 1 long blink... Book shows possible culprits, but the Service Bulletin #56 is what got me...

    May have stumbled onto water in my 2006 225

    Have a 2006 225 and, after having it 100 hours, it started running really rough. Within minutes it was surging up and down (at idle) before stopping with an alarm (PGM-FI Buzzer Warning System per PG 18-11 in the "Bible"). Figured I'd look at the oil as I fought to understand the alarm aka...

    What size bolt for tilt/trim fluid tank? Stripped female on t/t unit

    Of course the last bolt going in, I strip the bloody female portion ON THE T/T UNIT! :mad: I see there is room so I can get a longer bolt and get the job done, but does anyone know the size of the bolt? Figure I can get something at ACE Hardware until I find a bolt, utilized elsewhere on the...

    Tilt/Trim Removal

    Good Evening! Have a leak coming from the port (t/t motor) side of the assembly and have questions about removal. Removed clips, and bolts, etc and the assembly won’t tilt out since it catches on the edge of the t/t motor (where the wiring pops out of the case). Is this normal? Or perhaps...

    2006 225 Vapor Separator Drain Screw Loose

    This last trip out engine started running REALLY rough and exhaust smelled lean. Conched out on us a few times and was difficult to restart. First time I've ever smelled the exhaust since owning her in February. We idled back to the ramp and I got to changing LP filter and HP screen. Pulled...

    Part # for Intake Screen Bolt and Nut 2006 BF225

    Good Evening! Found the intake screen part, but still unable to locate the number for the bolt and nut holding it together... My screen has stripped so it won't grab the nut! Anyone willing to point me in the right direction?
