Hello all. It has been a long time since I posted! Motor has been pretty much flawless since all the episodes of a few years back. I will never forget all the help I received here! Again thank...
I had a similar situation with my 250 pro access. Rpm drop and hard time getting out of the hole. Eventually while I'm running I would have a sudden drop in RPM as well . When I tried to get on...
Also low voltage will cause that. I had similar issue. Did the motor loose power while trimming your motor?
Also probably a stupid question but when it doesn't start, it is cranking fine but not turning over or it doesn't even crank?
That is actually very good battery ( and expensive too ). Hold up and ask Don before you spend any more money.
Thanks all!
Thanks Don!
Thanks, I really want to get out this next. Last chance for a long time. I may take the risk.
Here is an update Don... Does the DFI if leaking from the powerhead, drip the driveshaft? Before I drop the lower unit, see what I found here... How can this get in the cooling system? So strange.

I am not joking. Feedback from my fellow Optimax owners would be great. Verado lower unit! This is not a torquemaster. Powerhead seal? Can I run it for one more trip if needed? Have a big trip...
Thank you.
Curious what you guys thought? I am about to bite the bullet on the 3 lithium batteries. going to keep the starting battery lead. So I need a four bank that will charge both lithium and lead acid....
This :yesnod:
Was it a continuous clatter or under load only?
Yes last trip out. Maybe other trips as well, as this is the first time I noticed it was happening as I hit waves that slowed me down. I may have heard this before as well. It sounds like for lack...
Thanks Leon, sure was good to talk to you yesterday. :) I will go check the flywheel and the plugs as well. Dont have diacom but let's see what is going with the plugs first. Maybe one is loose.
Here is where I find those numbers in the pic below when I did a search for 883778. I would go with the 856991A1 as noted under your motor. It may be interchangeable but others will pipe in.

Hello all! Well it has been a long time since I posted as the motor has been incredibly well for the last 100 hours+ or so and life has been a bit over the top these last few years (special thanks...
Yes it is easy to get out but you really dont need to. Just get the new anode and a socket wrench and simply tighten it.

The best way to save your transom is to have shock absorbing and away from your transom. The moment arm needs to be addressed. Meaning the very bottom or lower unit of your motor... I use this one...
one of your coils is likely dead. Look "carefully" for a discoloration on one of the coils.
Good to hear you are well Leon. Sorry to hear about your wife. My mom had a lobe removed as well. Brutal surgery so your wife is very tough. My mom has been cancer free for over 20 years so it...
Good to know. Going to check mine tomorrow! Thanks Leon! Hope you are doing well. We have been talking about you on Facebook!
