Headed out for a leisurely cruise with the family this morning. Cruising along at 3400 rpm and get a "check engine" alarm port side so I back off to idle, lift the hatch couldn't see hear or smell anything. Motor then stalls at idle. Try to start it but alarm sounds and engine stalls. Back at the marina about 2 hours later I take a good look around the engine a notice a lot rubber on the floor below the belts. I also start the motor, it fires up fine, but the alarm sounds shortly thereafter, I hear a squeal then it stalls. Last few outings I have noticed a squeak port side on start but it fades once the donk warmed up. Water pump I ask. I'm hoping so!!
