Welcome aboard. Does the shaft turn at all ? Is it both engines ? "...will not hold power" What does that mean ? Does it stop turning the prop's at a certain rpm ? Rick Ticket 85 SF Merc 454 MPI's Falmouth, MA

You may need to rotate the pump 180 degrees. Scott 1987 B33 SF Dealer's Choice V Edisto Beach, SC
