  6. neil reid started following Monterey 265 CR Fuel tank cleaning help
  7. neil reid
    Hello all, first time poster so please be gentle. Needing guidance, i want to clean my 2004 265CR fuel tank but the access is very limited. Is this tank sealed with no access points and if so what would be the best way ( without trying to remove the tank) to clean the diesel tank. I was looking at cutting an opening on the top around the fuel pick up lines etc and then once finished plate it out along with the original piece i remove fitted back in place securely with screws/gaskets etc to make it leak free. The tank is plastic. There is approx 6 to 7 inches available on the top wide to work on and the rest disappears behind the bulk head. I am hoping someone can give me guidance on this as i dont want to make a mess of things. Sorry, only going into my 4th year boating, so still a lot to learn. You can see pic 3 where i would plan to cut to get access,, ( not my engine bay but the same from another 265cr )

    Roswell and Monterey have been no help. I've just started removing the bad areas and doing touch-up repainting. Eventually I'll remove the tower and have it repainted but hopefully the patches will work for the next couple of years.

  18. Whipboat
    340SY. My freshwater level indicator is stuck on solid red at bottom of indicator panel. I have filled the tank but it stays lit on solid red, one LED. Is there a reset or calibration of the indicator panel? Any suggestions on how to remedy? TIA
  19. Whipboat
    My starboard trim gauges is not secured in place. Appears the metal holder has come loose behind the dash panel. How do you remove the plastic dash panel so I can reattach gauge holder and secure the trim gauge in place? TIA

  23. Jrob4449 started following 2002 242CR
  24. Jrob4449
    Hi everyone! I got an 2002 242CR last week from my in-laws down in Clearwater. It had not been used in about 4 years but was in overall good condition when it was parked. I’ve been working on some things since the inside got a lot of water in during the recent hurricanes and while I’m familiar with houseboats, CC, and deck boats I’m not overly familiar with this type or cruiser. I’m trying to figure out where fuses might be for the house? Also if anyone knows where I can find replacement parts fairly easily (shock arm for door, sink faucet, fridge). I looked at the manual but it was not specific to this boat. Thanks in advance for the help.
  25. 288SS
    I recently purchased a 2014 288 ss and I also have no water pressure at either of the sinks, sprayer or toilet. Cannot locate the pump either. Anyone know?
  26. Kristin Donovan started following Cockpit cover Monterey 250 CR
  27. Kristin Donovan
    I have a 2006 Monterey 250 CR. I am trying to get a new cockpit cover for the boat. I have a Taylor made cover and they will not remake it unless I can get information off the black tag on the canvas. My model does not have this tag. Does anyone know the P/N and DT numbers for this model of boat. I would like to get the factory cover and not a remake for this boat. Attached are pic of the cover and what the tag looks like. Any help would be appreciated.
  28. Dean Shirley started following Fresh water tank level monitoring module and Service soon
  29. Dean Shirley
    Hello QTOF01. Many of us have run into the same scenario regarding these really annoying loud alarms related to the “Service Soon” advisories. It was brought to my attention that service technicians use the Mercury G3 tool/device to reset that advisory for similar Mercury engines. See if your local mechanic can confirm this information. Some mariners/boaters have ventured out to pay a technician $50 to $100 to reset that annoying alarm. Best, Dean

    Greetings all. I’m currently seeking a fresh water tank level monitoring module/part (about 4”x1”) with the green, yellow and red lights and is connected behind the black panel below the Fusion radio. It’s install behind the panel but is secured with several screws in the front. Boat is a 2022 Monterey 295 SS. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Best, Dean
  31. Andy McGrath
    Thanks for your assistance. There are no screws to loosen I have checked. i think I am going to have to take her out of the water to do the job. thanks for taking the time to reply to me it’s appreciated. Cheers Andy.

    I'm not sure about your exact shifter, but on mine there is a screw on the side of each throttle that controls the "tightness" or "friction" however you want to word it of the shifters and throttle. Mine the screw looks like a totally random Phillips screw and doesn't look like it's an adjustment screw.
  33. Michaeldm426 started following 1995 Monterey 256 Cruiser Restore
  34. Michaeldm426
    My wife and I recently bought a 1995 Monterey 256 Cruiser as a project boat. I am working on trying to get the electrical hooked up before I start working on the motor. Currently, I am working on the dash. I get power to the ignition (key) switch from an orange wire (connected to “B” on the back). However, I am also reading that I get power to “S” (purple wire) and “I” (yellow wire with red stripe) even when the key is in the off position. Is this a sign that the ignition switch is bad? And In addition to that, none of the switches (blower, horn, etc) seem to be getting power, nor any of the gauges. What do I need to look for to fix this issue? I also have checked and I get power to the 12v DC panel in the cabin. I have checked for fuses around the motor (I can only find a 40 amp in a wiring harness on the motor), and inside the dash. So far I haven’t found any blown fuses.

    I had this same issue with a small leak into the after cabin. The AC water tray was way too high. Bilge worked. After removing the lower AC drain line off the bilge below I noticed it was filled with rust and debris. Shop vac from the lower end and done it was fixed. My access panel was under the stairs.
  36. Andy McGrath started following Loosening throttle control gear cables
  37. Andy McGrath
    Hi I have recently purchased a 302, 2006 version. The previous owner recently installed a new Seastar throttle and gear shift. The gear shift is far too stiff. A friend of mine indicates to loosen the gear shift the boat is going to need to come out of the water. I am not sure that this is correct? The engines are twin Volvo Penta 5.7L V8 OSI petrol engines with outdrives. The question is can the gear level cables be slackened without removing the boat from the water? Many thanks for your help. Cheers Andy.

    You can get the 25 qt cooler at Walmart and it does fit.

    How do you remove the Mirror, and speaker covers in the V berth on a 2007 Monterey 250 CR

    Hello. I'm looking for a wiring diagram for my 2015 Monterey 360 CS. Please advise Thanks

    I am tracking down an electrical problem with 2013 288SS (Mercruiser 8.2 Mag ECT DTS). Does anyone know where the Ignition Terminal Block (E30TB3) from the Hull Harness (attached pic) is physically mounted in the boat?
  42. Kevin bernat
    That looks great!

    I added custom SeaDek to our M65 swim platform with boat name. Our boat is Seafoam green over white. I color matched the SeaDek to the Seafoam trim and charcoal interior vinyl seats.

    Anyone know where I can find an engine hatch actuator for my 2013 M3?
  45. Thinepa
    I bought a 2001 262Cr in pretty good shape this spring, and I notice that the steering wheel has quite a bit of slop in it (about 15-20deg). When I manually move the lower unit to port or stern, it seems to be fairly tight (makes me think the steering gimbal should be fine), but I’d really like to tighten up the steering at the helm. It looks like a teleflex system. I’m just not sure how to take the play out of it, or if that’s even a possibility. Thanks!
