    • In the process of purchasing a 2008 LSV 23 from second owner, just waiting on mechanic at Malibu Dealer to complete pre purchase inspection and lake test this week.

      Is there a site where I can download a PDF of owner's manual for this boat?

      Thanks, Greg

    • @justgary Only did it once but took my time.  I have an LCR 320 so getting to them is easy.  You thinking i should just pull each rail with all of them out and visually inspect?

      @justgary Oh, I'm not debating you but I don't know if that's going to be my first go to here.  Beyond the carbon (knock on wood) she's reunning great.  Very smooth at all speeds.  My research shows that I'd have additional issues with a hung up injector so I'm not positive I want to pull those.  It's a job for sure.  

      Pulling injectors is easy.  Maybe a 30 min job.  Pull the throttle cable, remove 6 bolts on the top of the plenum, move plenum out of the way.   Then remove the 4 bolts holding the fuel rails.  They are allen head.  Pull injectors.  Reassembly is in reverse order.  You may need a new plenum gasket, so have one on hand.

      They don't make that cap for the older boats anymore. The newer style looks just like the older but will not thread in completely although it does work. In the interim I used a 1 1/2" plastic pipe plug which I now keep in my glove box. Former dealer member, Smooth Water Man got mine and he advised me about the fitment.

    • I check the torque on the throttle body, plenum, and exhaust about every 5 years. Closing in on 700 hrs. Changing plug wires next week. I'll let you know if there is an improvement.
