I have a 500 blue motor. Last Season i was having a bogging/backfire issue when trying to power up. i took it in and they said the fuel system was the issue so i had the fuel redone. New fuel pump/lines. I was only able to run it one time before i had to winterize. it ran good. I ran it twice this year. The first time i had no issue. On the second run, the motor ran good for about the first half hour, then i had to go thru a no wake zone for about 15 minutes. when i went to power up, to take off the motor wouldn't power up past 3000 rpm. I receive no engine beeps, the temp is good, the oil level is good. I am starting to wonder if it is electronic/sensor related? Has anyone experienced this. Any idea's to look at? Is there any good motor place to take it to around the Detroit Michigan area.
I have just bought this boat 272 fastech at the end of last season. I have a fountain and one thing i am shocked about this boat is it only has one battery.
