    Wow! I did fuel pressure checks at the rail and got everything but good readings!! The starboard engine pressure pegged out the gauge during the 5 second cycle. With the engine running, all throttle settings it maintained 38-40 PSI. The port engine fuel rail pressure was steady at 70 psi...

    5.7 OSI-E engines built by Dr Frankenstein!!

    This input was excellent, we located the correct connector hidden under the harnesses. Good news and bad news! There was only one code for overheating approximately 70 hours of run time ago. This is when I overheated both engine on a sand bar. All sensors appear to be working with nothing...

    My engine is hard to start after running for awhile. I can get it started if the throttle is WO and keep it above 1000 RPM for about 40 seconds. If I bring the throttle back to soon it dies. I have replaced plugs, coil, fuel lines and filter, and IACV. No help. Anyone had a similar issue I...

    I’m at wits end trying to find the part number for the spark plugs that are applicable to use in a Penta 5.7 OSI-E. I can find every part of the ignition system but need to verify that what is installed is correct. The engine is difficult to start and surges once it starts. The plugs...
