Hi
I have been reading this forum for about a year, and have found the brain trust here pretty remarkable.
Last month we bought a 2004 320 Sundancer with 350 MAG MPI engines with smart craft and about 450 hours on the engines. I noticed on the the first trip that the engine displays are correct (ie, port engine is displayed on the port 2 displays etc), but the center display when you bring up the engine sync display that they are backwards (ie it shows the RPMs reversed). Yesterday I installed Vessel View mobile module (which was really easy) and when I started up, the engines were reversed on the VV. Any ideas on how these engine indications got swapped?
Second question, both engines start normally when cold. The port engine, when restarting after a short shutdown, sometimes starts just fine, and sometimes starts and quits after about 2 seconds. It will do that unless I start with the throttle advanced. Once it runs at 1100-1200 rpm for about 5 seconds it idles just fine. Suggestions here too?
