Started by running great, nice and strong. When I stopped to do some fishing, will not restart. Just cranks and cranks.. tried the ball, no change..Put it back on trailer not running.. bounced it down the road 20 miles to authorized repair shop. When they checked it, started right up.. They said that they were unable to find and real problem.
Returned home with it, went to lake. Same thing… exactly same thing. I bring it back to repair not running. This time they said they found a bad connection at the ECU…
Well brought it home, back on the lake, same problem.
Because it was under warranty, I brought it back a third time. They had it for 8 weeks, then told me it was my battery… which is crap… can’t crank a engine over for 20 mins with a bad battery..
Warranty now expired, it sits in my yard, not running.
Vessel code said I needed a new high pressure fuel pump. Replaced it. Still not running, still showing same code.
Replaced fuel lines from tank to engine.
Replaced fuel filter and as recommended, added 2nd filter before VBS..
now I can get it to idle, roughly for about 2 mins..
I’m running out of Idea’s … can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance…
