I am having trouble finding a 50 Amp Circuit breaker for my 1999 4.3 L
Volvo Penta.

It is a Texas Instruments part with the small round red reset button.
The two Penta parts shops I spoke to did not seem to know what I was
talking about. I believe it is for the Tilt/Trim.

Anyone have a source for this? I am in Canada but would pay postage
from the US. Couldn't find any on ebay.

Thanks!

Take the breaker to a Mercruiser shop. They may have what you need.

go to any boating supply store. The 50 amp breakers are common. West
Marine, Boaters World, etc should have them.

I am in Toronto so we don't have those chains but I am pursuing
similar supply stores here. Nobody seems to have the Penta parts but
now that I know that the Mercruiser parts will fit I am optimistic
that I will find one.

Search on part numbers 88-11178 and 88-806950 One of those is probably what
you are looking for.

Found one on ebay! Thanks for all the advice!

Also ordered a repair manual and parts manual off ebay as well.

Just noticed today that my water pump is leaking after I shut the
engine off. Is that a pump replacement for sure, or more likely a
gasket? I see the pumps are not cheap!
