The boat was running fine on Sunday. All stats were good according to Vesselview. It seemed a little louder (more than usual) at 2000 rpm but at 3300 it ran perfectly.
Got back near my slip and the engine died at idle. It wouldn't start & I got towed in but 1/2 hour later it started and would...
Been battling an engine stalling issue just out of blue.
Starts, runs for a minute then dies. I can wait a few minutes, same thing over and over.
(8.1 engines with Gen 3 newer fuel cool)
Long story short, I switch fuel cool modules from the good engine to bad, now it runs fine.
"bad module"...
Ok thanks. I’ve never noticed them but haven’t really looked specifically. I’m going to try and run engine from a gas can first. If it’s fine then I’m going to use a primer bulb (with key on) and see if in can get flow from fuel system before fuel cooler.
before doing this I’m going to change...
Ok I don't remember seeing anything there. I see the flow meter on the bulk head (which could be an issue too) but I'll have to follow the fuel line all around and see if I can locate it.
I am chasing a fuel issue (I think) and with new fuel pumps in the cool fuel module, they are running at key On, still no fuel. I probably need to prime the line and I will check the water sep/filter for water but now I'm questioning the anti siphon valve. I believe mine is connected to the...
I did switch out IAC and nothing changed. I tried removing the crank position sensor but its really in there! I need a different tool to pry it out. I'm going to try a door panel removal tool which is the right bend on it. I have the sensor on order. I've ordered a few possible cheaper parts...
My engine has just 270 hours. Salt water boat & installed in 2016.
I was going about 6 mph for 30 minutes and one engine just died. It would crank but not start.
After I got into the slip I tried again and it did start for 30 seconds or so and then died. The longer I let it sit, it seemed like...
I'm just trying to understand how it works before i do my installation.
I have a hydraulic pump for an old autopilot system that I will keep using (with new electronics). But the thing that confuses me is it's just 2 wires (12v) going to it. I don't understand how it knows to "pump" towards...
ok thanks!
Mine is also twin inboard with 8.1 engines.
I'll do some investigating this weekend when I'm down at the boat and see what I can find (whats good and what isn't) along with the pump info and cylinder ram size.
Now I know where to start at least!
ok, if you have a 410 and the EV 150 system then I know it should work for mine! I would probably get the whole system for $2k instead of trying to use the old pump. I don't even know if it works to be honest.
