2016 S226 crank but no spark + other Qs
Mrwick replied to RiverSurfer's topic in Supreme Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
I bought a rinda techmate pro marine scan tool that was very helpful for diagnosing a fuel problem I had a couple of years ago on my 226. It would be nice to know what the ecm is seeing when you crank the engine. It sounds like you’ve covered most the basics of troubleshooting the ignition…. I would add that you might want to use a multimeter and check that you are getting at least 12 volts to the ignition system. Also I would check your ground terminal and make sure it isn’t something stupid like a poor ground….. chased more than one gremlin on a boat that turned out to be a ground issue. These are just a couple more things to look at. Good luck! -
Stuck Water Separator filter
Mrwick replied to Bernie's topic in Centurion Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
I would remove the filter header (filter base) and use a vise and what ever type of plier or wrench it takes to remove it. Remember to lube the gasket on the filter before install..... even a fuel filter. New engine oil is about as good of lube for this application as you can get. Follow the filter manufactures pictographs on the filter for required tightness. It is typically half a turn after the gasket touches the header. Over tightening can lead to the problem you are having with a stuck filter and under tightening leads to leaks.....it’s hard to say what caused your filter to become stuck... good luck! -
Prop shaft seal replacement 2013 V226
Mrwick posted a topic in Supreme Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
Just in case anyone else out there with a 226 have problems with a leaky prop shaft seal, don’t fret. I changed mine out when I was winterizing a few weeks ago and I was pleasantly surprised how easy it actually was. As I was first assessing the job, I figured it was really going to suck but i didn’t have to tear much apart. Unhooked hoses, pressure switch wire, shift cable clamp, 4 bolts on the shaft coupler, and 6 bolts on the vdrive to tranny mount. With a cherry picker, the vdrive just fit through the access hole under the back seat. Removed the coupler nut and used a coupler puller to pop the coupler loose from the shaft. Installed a new OJ props serviceless seal assembly and put it all back together. Whole job took about 3.5 hours and the only help I had is from my daughter who ran the cherry picker for me. I would add picks but the site says I’m out of space.....hope this helps somebody else save a little cash buy doing this yourself! -

4" Seat Risers PICS (for RI/FI & SV233/SV244 with Springfield Seat Mounts)

Great project Infinity! -
Wakedirt, in my experience, shapers don’t work well on a 226....the wave is really good listed....that being said, I went down the path of a GSA system. It’s pricy, but it’s worth the money......it does require at least 4K in ballast to throw a big wave.

X2 on H’s comment...... Soulcraft and Chaos are great boards but I would add if you have money, the new Hyperlite virial boards are super fast from what I am hearing from some of my boys......for only a small price of $1200?. Lol. I’ll stick with my Chaos!

I’m headed to the Denver boat show in a couple of weeks, I really hope they have a ZS to look at. If they surf similar to a fi but still have the supreme simplicity, it’s got to be a winner! The only thing that bothers me is the ZS is getting pretty close to the FI price. I would think at that point a guy just steps up to the Centurion.

2012 v226 cast tower style/brand?
Mrwick replied to WakeDirt's topic in Supreme Boats General Discussion
It’s the same top that fourwinns used on their H200/210 reverse arch boats (2012/13). -
Anyone on here spent any significant time on the new zs232 yet? Curious to hear the feedback!

V226 Prop/Bilge Questions
Mrwick replied to kmul38's topic in Supreme Boat Maintenance, Performance, Troubleshooting
The 1847 did the trick on my v226. Surfs great with 4K of ballast.....also will pull a skier or wakeboarder great! -
Rub rail mounted docking lights
Mrwick replied to Mrwick's topic in Supreme Boat Accessories, Electronics and Modifications
They are awesome.....they are pretty bright and work great for getting off the water after a late evening set....I don’t think you will be disappointed if you add them. -

Enzo SV GSA install

Think my short term swim deck solution is to raise mine as well.... I have some 2 x 2 inch aluminum square tubing I’m going to use with 2inch longer screws.....
