    Maybe, but could also be most any of the items listed previously in post 15 can also cause it if they are clogged up with crud

    1996 maxum 2400SCR. 5.7L V8 runs

    Most likely yes, but I live on a lake and if it's not raining I might be boating ;) Take a coffee can, clear container, rags, small gas can and funnel, and maybe another fuel filter Remove the fuel filter (filter should be new) and place coffee can under it to catch the gas if it spills...

    We could get into what to do and try to find the problem, but your comment about not being a mechanic sort of tells me you don't to do it. If that's not correct we can start advising.

    1996 maxum 2400SCR. 5.7L V8 runs

    With no gas getting to carb the amount or kind of fuel you have has nothing to do with the current problem. You have something clogged up as in carb, antisiphon valve, fuel filter, collapsed fuel line or a bad fuel pump. My initial thought is the fuel filter or fuel pump

    On iBoats we changed that all new members have to answer 2 questions and be approved by a Mod. After doing this it stops all kinds of bad stuff

    Don't know what 4 balance is I'm thinking fuel issue right now Being you have an LX I'm finding mechanical fuel pump, again serial numbers will verify Get someone to help Remove the flame arrestor to where you can see down the throat or the carb. Manually hold open the choke and get someone to...

    Being a 96 LX means it's a carb motor and has either a 2 or 4 bbl carb, Either a TB4 or TB5 ignition (most likely a TB5), and can have an Alpha or Bravo drive When the motor died did it do it real quick as the key turned it off or spurted?

    Need to know what motor you have, not the boat. Serial numbers are best

    Emulsified seawater + diesel = burnt/obstructed valves?

    With all the white smoke being unburnt fuel it does have low compression, I just hope it's just the heads. Water getting into the cylinders can break and bend things

    Just thought of something, you said EFI and 30 psi then found out you have an MPI. The MPI should have a 43 psi Reg

    If you have a good electric pump you don't need the mechanical one.

    In that case check your pressure sensor. In most all cases the gauge just tells the driver what the pressure is, it does not tell the ECM. The motor will have another sensor connected to the ECM which may be providing incorrect info

    8.2 litre efi mercruiser problems

    You kept saying EFI so I thought TBI I didn't need cool fuel either but it was cheaper than Aeromotive, and with fuel return to tank, it was a non-issue. Was also converting from MEFI-2 to MEFI-3 and a remap to give me 530HP The fuel rail was angled cut where the fuel lines went in and...

    Again mine was a MPI so it had a fuel rail. Connect the pump output to the top port of the rail. The bottom port is after the Reg which returns fuel to the main fuel tank
