Serial #1E081311
Was out the other morning and while running at WOT felt the motor lose torque. Was at about 87 mph, probably 6000-6100 rpm and boat lost it's "pull" and dropped down to 81 mph. Ended up getting out of it and shutting down the motor. I didn't get a look at the tach unfortunately, as a million thoughts of panic entered my mind. Went to start it again and it ran very rough for approximately 2-3 seconds and died, then wouldn't start again. Smelled strong odor of exhaust and sounded terrible. I can still hear the lift pump when I turn the key. Motor has 8 hours on it, and has been going through proper break-in. Only bought fuel from heavily trafficked stations around town. Dropped it off at the shop and awaiting word, was just wondering if anybody here had any ideas. Morale is low right now! lol
Have video of my attempt to restart it, just can't figure out how to post it.
