Serial No 0m340696
Have a crank but no start condition on my 1999 Sea Ray 5.0 MPI/Alpha One. Boat had been running relatively well prior except wouldn’t fully rev at WOT, only ran about 4K RPM. Had recently installed a lift pump to alleviate a vapor lock problem I had on a trip to Lake Powell this spring, added the pre-lift pump canister style filter when I got home and then encountered the issue with not revving.
Boat’s been sitting on the buoy for a week with a fair amount of rain and now won’t start. There was a couple inches of water in the bilge but nothing extreme. Thought maybe moisture distributor cap so I swapped that out and no change. Checked voltage at the coil and got 12v. Voltage at the coil wire to the distributor was 13.5v. Checked the ignition fuse and it’s fine; jiggled main fuse wires and looked around for loose connections. Screw-on fuel filter is new, replaced it when I put the pump on. Checked it and it’s full of fuel. Haven’t put a gauge on the fuel rail yet but I poked the bleeder valve and got a good spray.
Ideas?
