Newbie here,
I just rescued a Spectra 18 with a BBF 460 from a family member. It is in reasonable shape. the body and gel coat look really good. I just rebuilt the Holly 750 double pumper and installed a new starter. The engine seems strong for the 15 seconds I run it. I have 3 questions.
1. It has a Berk 12jc pump. the pump has a diverter on it. the diverter reads domminator jet on the end. It seems to have only a small amount of movemment. The family member who ran the boat insists the unit is only a trim adjuster. I think it needs some tlc. It has an 7 position lever to the right of the driver. Anyone know about this unit. Is it out of adjustment? should I replace with a place diverter?
2. How do I disconnect the pump drive from the engine. Is this simple or a major amount of work.
3. It has an old single point dist. Is the pertronix II a good upgrade for the $.
Thank You for any help
