I have a 1989 Sea Ray 440 aft cabin. I'm having issues with the generac generator and need advice (other than replacing it). It starts and runs for about 28 minutes at best and then shuts down. After that it won't start. We have replaced numerous parts and ran every test anyone has suggested but, everyone just scratches their heads and can't figure out why. The obvious stuff done is:
Cleaned and inspected carburetor (3 mechanics have each done this)
Replaced fuel pump
Replaced control board (this was done because at first it would not shut down. )
Bypassed exhaust temperature sensor, oil pressure sensor and coolant temperature switch to troubleshoot those, and the problem continued with each one bypassed.
Replaced thermostat
Replaced ignition switch
There are no error codes.
Any ideas?
I am also trying to find a dipstick for the oil because it is broken and the part number for quicksilver is 810804 and generac part number 075735 but, this part has been discontinued and I have not found anything to replace it. If anyone has any suggestions on that ...I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thank you
