ahhh, not shut'n down, but just wont rev no mo...?, umm, pull lever assy out/lift it up, so you can see a switch assy underneath, see if button is sticking,...or is both motors revving just up to 4k, and doesnt sound like boucing off limiter?
Well, pretty simply put.......I am on the lake and I open it up full throttle which is something like 6000-6300 RPM, it runs like a bat out of hell, then suddenly after like 1-2 minutes, the entire boat dies......both motors. I pull off safety/ignition lanyard, put it back on to reset with double beep, and both motors start right back up.......it idles fine and runs great, but dies anywhere after 4000 RPM.......

mess w/ the fuel selector, also sounds weird, but loosen up gas cap, maybe the tank aint venting, try selector first, then wlile there, see if inline filter is clogged or empty of gas, or crap in it...

It is electrical..........!..........
It's your DESS post. It's bad and has to be replaced!.....if you hadn'd made triple posts, you'd have known this an hour ago. I'll be deleting your other threads, so please, limit yourself to one thread, of one problem.......you've made it very confusing trying to jump from one place to another, trying to help you out!.........

I don't have a boat, but a pwc. Mine was doing the same thing first of summer. Took it in and did compression test and had a piston blown. Do the compression test first, if everything checks out ok check all the fuel lines, could be a hole in one of them. Look for gas in the bottom of the hull too.:cheers:

Confusing......
No, I'm sorry if you see it as being rude. It wasn't meant to be. But your statement was proof positive that you couldn't manage the thread either. I gave you the fix just before 1, then when I found another thread by you, posting another thread of the same problem, I pulled up your file.....and you had three.
I'm sure you want help. We are here to help you. But do you know how many members come in here looking for help?.....There are hundreds of premium members, not including mods, who do this to help people out. We are not paid. But when you keep posting, not checking for answers or waiting for someone long enough to read and reply for answers, your wasting these other guys time, that's repling to your thread 2 and 3 times.
I think it's being more selfish on your behalf!........sorry if you don't get it.

DESS post.....
Now, like I posted in a different thread of yours........if both of your engines run smoothly, then you loose them both.......its got to be electrical. The only common componet between them is the DESS post. If you can pull the lanyard and put it back on right away and they both start, it's the post.
About a $65 dollar fix........replace the post. You can do this yourself. It doesn't have to go to a dealer.........:cheers:
