1993-1996 Malibu Echelon Starter Relay Part number?
JDoidge92 posted a topic in Maintenance, Tech Info & Troubleshooting
Hey guys, Im having some issues with my '94, Im getting the notorious "Clicking" but no crank on the starter. Theres enough forums out there going into detail about this issue, so i'm not going to explain it here. I what to start by replace my starter relay located on the top driver side of the motor (by the 50Amp breaker) There is no part number on this and bakes has multiple relays that look similar. Can some someone point me in the direction to where I can find one of these starter relays? I also have another question, If I were to buy a new starter, can I buy a generic starter for this motor or does it have to be a special marine starter? The motor is the 350 small block. Thanks guys! -
Replaced Starter in 1988 Malibu Skier, but housing leaves Gap to Flywheel
KonkAlive posted a topic in Maintenance, Tech Info & Troubleshooting
After changing the starer in my 1988 Malibu Skier (Mercury 5.7L) direct drive, the starter housing isn't as larger as the really old starter it replaced. The shop (and online) confirmed I have the correct replacement part. However, the housing is smaller than the previous housing and it leaves a gap, where water could enter the flywheel housing. The shop told me that's normal and that's just how the replacement is. That seems highly suspect to me. I have an image, but can only upload from a URL in this post. Does anyone know the real situation? Any help would be appreciated, because I can't get back on the water until I resolve this.
