06 4.3MPI Issues

[gfo]

Hi!

I recently bought a 06 SeaRay 220 SunSport with a 4.3MPI engine.

But i've got some issues with the engine.

1. It idles at 400-450 rpm. It should be 600rpm??
2. It often stalls when i go put it into neutral, and are hard to start again.
3. I can't get the Troll Control working.
4. I think it has a fuel leak. Smells fuel, and there is fuel in the water below the engine.

I took it out today, to check the fuel leak.
My fuel tank sensor was on 0%, i filled 30litres, cruised around until the fuel tank was back on 0%, and the total used fuel gauge (smartcraft) told me that i had used only 20litres??
Where did the last 10litres go?

Can these issues be connected or are they different problems?

Hope anyone can point me in the right direction.

Glenn - Stop operating your boat. Find the fuel leak. Do so with all systems powered off. Fuel leaks are serious business. If you are not comfortable tracing the fuel line from the tank to the engine, take it into a shop. Easy spots to check are at fittings such as at the fuel filter(s), and where the line enters the tank and where it enters the injector assembly.

Do what hampton says once you get the fuel leak taken care of (before you blow yourself up)

The low idle/stall issue sounds like the IAC
