New to the forum, thanks to all for sharing great info.
I have a new 2013 Hurricane SS201 deck boat with Merc 4.3L MPI.
After only a couple hours of operation, I have the alarm go off (about 5 secs in duration) often when i am trying to accelerate past 3000 or sometimes 4000 rpm. It is not consistent but happening about half the time. It will then limit the RPMs and the motor RPM will surge up and down until I back the motor off.
I've checked the typical alarm indicators (motor oil, drive oil, temp - gauge always shows fine) and all are fine although those alarms are supposed to be intermittent and this is one long 5 sec alarm and then stops.
I have called the dealer and they tell me they have heard of this problem, have a boat in for it and Merc is working with them to figure it out.
Anyone have any such experience or ideas what could be causing this.
Thanks again
