I have a 2005 214FS and I am looking for the proper starting technique for my carburated 5.7 Mercruiser. I have tried many different methods with different throttle positions but nothing seems to work. What usually works is letting it turn over until it beeps, as soon as it beeps it starts right up. It seems to me that this extended cranking would be bad for the starter? I can't find any help in the manual, Can anyone explain the beep, and the immediate start up after the beep? Thanks for any help, mike

Wow! That's what I call customer service! Thank you, mike

I have a 2005 214 FS, thanks for the quick reply! Mike

Good morning, Does anyone know if Monterey sells the transom shower option as a kit? Thanks, mike

Hello all, My name is Mike Murray, I am brand new to the forum and brand new to Monterey. I have been a Crownline owner the last five years and I have just made the switch to Monterey. I just purchased a 05 214 FS but it does not have a trailer. I was looking for advice on what to look for in a trailer. I mostly see bunks being used although I've seen a few with rollers. Does anyone know what Monterey recommends? Thanks for any input, mike
