Re: New hub in prop - still same problem
The shop did a test originally and said it was a spun hub. He said the alarm would be caused from reving too high. I originally thought it was a fuel issue myself. I guess I'll have to look into more of the fuel side of things.
It is definitely not overheating. Water is coming out of the spitter and it is a very strong stream. I replaced the impeller about 3 weeks ago, I serviced the lower unit, and now re-hubbed the prop. I am thinking it is a fuel issue but not sure because the engine never dies, always starts immediately, and never runs bad.
Basically what happens is I'll be cruising around 3500 rpm and about 2 minutes into the ride the constant beep alarm will go off. I turn off the engine. Turn it right back on (no alarm goes off) speed up and around 3000 rpms the engine will shutter and will not go higher than that. I dont push it, I'll turn it off again and then turn it back on and it runs fine for about 30 min or so and then does it all over again.
The engine only has 290 hours on it.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
