BUP,
Sorry for the confusion, I was answering 575cat Q, just didn't type out his full name. I have 2006 600 SCi's with those S/N's.
thanks
Dean

second that , BUT that being said he said it died when he shut it down .I assume it did restart , 150hrs and factory IAC motors need to be replaced . this happened to us at the shootout in one of our groups 600sci also , it was IAC motor causing the problem .

can swap one from the good running engine, Twins sometimes can be a huge help. If you have not been super cleaning your flame arrestors and control any form of dust / dirt/ carpet/ and so on in your engine compartment - they all are killers for a IAC not to mention piston rings and cyc walls
Have to go back on one of my posts - if I recall CORRECTLY the MAP should be a steady horn for the 600 sci
I still would scan and if all possible with Merc CDS.

depends what apps you are going to be scanning all the time and how you are going to be scanning them. I do like Diacom a lot and have used it since 1993. But I also have all the Merc related scan tools as well thru the years. Believe it or not I still like the Merc DDT and Diacom techmate pro hand helds for out on the water testing. I velcro the diacom techmate pro hand held to my arm while driving the boat. I use to velcro the Merc DDT to my leg while driving.
For not in direct sunlite and NOT trying to watch / read scan while running down water ways the laptop software is better. Diacom laptop software / and MERC CDS G3 does work very well. Also laptops hate to be in hot direct sunlite another negative. Very hard to read as well.
See with Merc CDS / G3 it can only scan Merc and Merc Racing and Mercruiser products only.
Actually MERC CDS G3 can work out better for Merc racing apps with diagnostics sometimes as it seems. the downside you have to be a Merc dealer and uses a password protection plus it is expensive.
For the Money Diacom is the way to go unless you work on outboards in the mix other than Mercs.
Diacom ---- You would have to pick between laptop software version or hand held as what would work better for you and the depths of it

I did the same last month for our 600SCIs. With the additional adaptors all the boaters in our group can use it, I should of bought one a few boats ago. Would have saved me time, aggravation, and $.
