My apologies on the price - I had my gauge (an older style, smaller one) in mind that I had done by Gauge Saver. Download the manual for the Garmin unit that you have in mind. In there will be a template that you can either print out or just duplicate on a sheet of paper. Use that to compare...

Guys, before you go too far down the road describing what has already been talked about at length, this thread is from 2021. It was resurrected talking about quality 2-stroke oil and additives. So it's one of those "morph" threads :)

Unless someone with the exact same dash (sometimes it changes over the model years) can respond with this specific answer, your best bet it to simply take some accurate measurements. But... you didn't mention your model year. What other sensors/etc will you need to purchase and what wiring...

If you're getting full voltage (which should be higher than 12V - and over 13V with the engines running), then you likely have a partially failed wire/connection. Meaning, you can get 12V on a single strand of wire - but that won't supply enough AMPERAGE to run the motor. Starting at the...

So you won't really get anything to stick (at least not well) to the plastic. If you don't want to replace the tub (not hard), I can't really think of anything better regarding filling the holes than I've already mentioned. You could use small bolts - either panheads or flats with finish...

Does the stereo have to be mounted inside the tub... or could it be face mounted to a cover plate? Could the stereo go somewhere else? Check out the various boxes/tubs/etc that a place like Boat Outfitters has. Or even just a new tub like a small electronics box or glovebox that is easily...

Put your coat on and go take a quick a pic :) But, I think I have an idea of what you have. It sounds like a plastic "tub" mounted into the wall. Probably held on with screws? So, if you don't really have a need for it, you can make a plate out of just about anything and remove the tub...

The material where the holes are... is it made of plastic? Got a picture of the area so we can get a better idea?

As you are probably surmising, it's likely nothing to immediately worry about as the telltale really has nothing to do with getting proper water flow through the engine. Without being there it's hard to say exactly where the other end of the hose is - I have two similar engines to yours, but am...

HDPE and PVC board are both widely used for this purpose - hence the reason I mentioned it :) The only structural area of concern is the middle area between the seats. But the ideas I mentioned above will solve that (and have solved it). And I'm sure there are other good ideas.

Yup - like a basin wrench.

I always enjoy PF's stuff... moreso if he would stop yelling From "what I know" (which is sometimes not that much), 360 is more like Startron and less similar to RF+. Many years ago, Startron was the first company (Star Brite) to come out with a stabilizer that also fights ethanol. Soon other...

I didn't look at the doc, but whenever I size a trailer for a boat for a customer, the "bow eye to transom" (not a swim platform) is one of the key measurements.

RF+ doesn't stablize fuel - which is the main reason I also use Startron. :p I'm not sure about the Startron vs hose tests PF did and their actual accuracy. I've been using Startron in ALL my gas stuff for proably 20 years with no issues. I use it in chainsaws, weedwackers, lawnmowers, a...

Very intersting, Fam! Thanks! I will definitley put more thought into Tech vs RF. My experience (about 7 or 8 years now with the Star/RF) has been nothing short of "very happy"- fuel is alway super clean when I check it by draining the VST and the O2 sensor is nice and clean, too... so much...

And... there are nicer faucets to replace that. I had a similar setup on my Sundancer and went a high arc faucet. It was much nicer to use.

Oh, I thought you were there at the boat. It'll make more sense when you're there. You've got a bunch of ideas to think about. Things like this typically aren't all that bad once you get eyes on it.

All of the things? Doesn't the cup holder help - that looks like some really nice extra access for a second hand. Fridges aren't too hard to remove. Sink removal?

Is this to be aesthetically pleasing or just functional? Could be as simple as a couple pieces of plywood. You could put some neoprene strips (or anything similar)on the bottom side... or even go crazy and cover it in carpet. You could also epoxy the wood (and, if you wanted, use some glass)...

Yeah, working on boats is often a testament to your yoga skills! What you're dealing with is very basic plumbing so that part is easy. As you said, it's access - without being there and seeing things in person I can't fully comment, but it sounds like you found your access point. BUT... I see...
