The boat was running fine. Last week I changed the oil, oil filters, and fuel filters. After the oil change, I started the port motor and it ran fine. Then I started the starboard motor and it stalled. I started it again and there was a squeal, but I was able to keep it running and the squeal went away and it ran fine. So, I shut them both off.
Sunday, we went to go out. The port motor started and the starboard motor would not. It turns and turns, but won't start. I checked the fuel filter to see if it was full....it was.
Monday, the mechanic shows up and says it's not getting spark. So, he changes the cap, rotor, and module. Now there is a spark and it still won't start. He tested the fuel pressure and said it's reading 0, and I need to buy a fuel pump ($400+ and 6 hours labor).
How can all this happen from an oil change??? It was running fine until then. Now no spark and no fuel pressure????
Should I keep throwing money at this until it starts?
Any suggestions?
