you are correct. they had to order it anyway so maybe in 2 weeks we can take a crack at it. Im going to New Mexico trout fishing this coming weekend....bl

you can order it from bam marine and get it this week,i could pickup the boat and do it at my house this weekend if you want.

up to you I ordered the parts online and should be here in a couple days. I will drag it to you if you want. Then I'll owe you...b.l

Cam sensor is an easy change. The crank sensor is in a spot that makes it challenging to change. Once located, there is one bolt that holds it in place, remove and then rotate and grab the part of the sensor that acts as a handle and start tugging. It is a b!tch to remove but after tugging enough and swearing it comes out. The replacement is slightly different than the one from Merc (at least mine was from BAM). I oiled the O-rings and installed the new one.

Here is my defective one
