If you're going to keep it for a while, buy the scan tool. Rinda Technologies - you'll be able to troubleshoot it easily.

Years ago my 496 Ho did the same thing,,,Remove the air intake screen just above the serpantine belt, the belt ,,dust,, sucks directly into the air intake, no mechanic could find the problem, after 4 weeks of derating engine, I removed the intake screen and it was full of belt dust, starving the engine for air,,after cleaning the intake screen it was perfect again,,just sayin check the small stuff.

Id guess water pressure alarm......sea pump might need a overhaul.
|
Filter was cleaned two weeks ago
brand new stainless hardin marine pump was also installed two weeks ago
brand new plug new oils
lot of things here are eliminated
idle is perfect engine starts really well
|
Is it bouncing off the rev limiter? I haven't messed with one in awhile but I think the limiter will sound an alarm and pull RPM after so many times hitting it I think...could be wrong tho like I said been awhile lol
|
All rpm parameters seems to be on point
no bouncing and never hit rev limiter
just a 2 beep alarm
then sound like a loss of power afterward
im scanning it this weekend will keep you guys posted on this one .
|
I'm still thinking water pump actually....I know you said it's new but I think those have a flow and temp sensor for the water and you may not be getting the flow it wants or bad sensor or clogged sensor/line....keep us posted good luck!
|
The two beep alarm is the equivalent of a car's "check engine" light. Your guessing until you scan it. Hopefully it doesn't become a "change engine" light.
|
Youre right on this one and this is what i assume also
pump is doing really fine mechanically but maybe a pressure/temp sensor failure here
