    e-tec trouble

    model # e150dhlsuf
    seral # 06150909
    When the rpms get to 1800 - 2000 the motor starts missing over that and it runs fine.
    Also when loading on the trailer when I hit the gass the motor dies then a second or two and the rpms come up and I can load the boat. What could it be ?

    Thank You
    Jim

    Take it to your dealer and ask him to have a tech call the factory hot line about obtaining an improved throttle opening cam to smooth out the trottle operation in the 1500-2000 rpm range.

    Also ask the tech to load the latest software update (#92343) that came out last week. The factory is sending letters out to all registered owners of the small block V6's to get the latest software upgrade . This applies to serial numbers below 5167082 for the 150 and is explained in service bulletin 2006-03 W .

    If the follow the bulletin's instructions, when you get the boat back, there should be a black mark on the upper right corner of the large yellow tag on your EMM showing that the software upgrade was done.

    You can continue to run it, but get it to your dealer as soon as you can.
