I have an 86 Johnson 110 hp on a Ranger bass boat. The engine has been previously rebuilt by the prior owner and when I had it compression checked they confirmed the engine is like new.
Last night I was out on the river fishing. The buzzer at the throttle started going crazy. The boat still had good power when it started to go off. We shut the boat down and fished that spot for a few hours. Then as we went to start it the buzzer of course was starting to ring again. Once we started moving the buzzer quit. Then a few different times during the night as we would move the boat it wouldn't take long to hear the buzzer and have to shut down again.
The water "pee" hole is spraying water hard the entire time. The VRO has been disconnected and I pre mix 50:1 so I was wondering if maybe I premixed light and it is running lean? I just swapped plugs yesterday before we went out but I can't imagine that being the problem. I gapped the plugs at 35 thousands.
Any help would be appreciated. The thing runs fantastic when the buzzer isn't going off. For a 335 v it with only a 110 hp it will hit 47-51 mph on my GPS with two of us in it at times on the water.
Thanks,
