I am new on the forums as a poster and apologize up front if I don't get all the requisite information in this post.
A bit of background and description of the problem:
I just purchased this boat. Prior to purchasing I had an inspection done by a locally recommended inspector and following that I had the recommended repairs made before purchasing the boat. The repairs were made by a local marina and included:
Replaced thermostats
Water pump Impellers
and a Seal on one the trim tabs
When I picked the boat up on Saturday everything seemed to run great. We had about a 20 minute run from the marina where the service was performed to our slip. We overnighted at the slip and the next morning we filled up with fuel and headed out.
After filling up with fuel we ran for about 20 minutes when the starboard engine suddenly shutdown. It would start again pretty easily but would surge at idle. If I attempted to give it any throttle it would die again. We headed back to the slip with one engine.
Any ideas?
Engine details below
Volvo Penta I/O, Gasoline, V8 235HP
Serial Number of Starboard Engine - 4110130116
Thanks in advance!
