I started my Sea Ray 185 with advance throttle in neutral while out of the water and running with water supply going in through "ear muffs". I was trying to see if I could find a leak contributing to excess water coming into the boat.
After a few minutes the engine stopped, and there was a burning smell. I shut things off and after a few minutes tried to restart, but the engine would not crank. Did the starter remain engaged while I was running it? If so, is there a way to avoid this and still warm the engine up using advance throttle in neutral?
