This happened again today. Starboard engije just goes “BOOM” and stops abruptly (at speed) but the port engine is still running at this point.
I recently replaced starter on starboard engine, new plugs, adjusted low speed screws for carbs, etc. Runs alright and idles decent enough not to stall on me. Port engine runs great. Both engines run great at 1/4 to full throttle, however, after driving for about 20 mins or so at around half throttle, i go to accelerate to about 3/4 throttle and then reduce throttle to about 1/4 and i hear this boom and the starboard engine is off.
Didn’t try restarting because I wasn’t sure what it was. Tomorrrow going to check if anything stuck around the driveshaft under the boat (caught dock rope in there last week and made similar sound, removed all the rope as far as I know..) This happened before I caught rope in there and today as well.
What could this problem be? I’ve read following:
1) MPEM
2) Stator (contacts)
3) battery
4) DESS connection (but only one engine goes out.)
5) Start/stop button
6) Something stuck in impeller
Can it be anything else? I have new fuel filters and oil filters that I want to install asap.
Thanks in advance!
