Went out on the lake for the first time this year.
ran fine for the first 5 minites then one motor stated to suppter. I sbacked off the throttle then onr port motor died. It would not star up but would turn over. After a few tries it would not turn over any more. got back to shore and inspected then engines.
The port motor had bad sign of burnt paint on the tune pipe and the white paint on the head was now tan. I let everything cool down then changed the plugs. It started up fine. Found that the cooling line off the pump blow off and that I had to change the clear tube on the tune pipe because it melted.
Now my question is this what do I need to do now?
Do a compression test? Pull the head and inspect?
Inspect the overheating signal as there was not beepping!!!
but I ger all the other beeps.
The SB motor I now need to change the wear ring as it cavitating way to much but other than that it's fine.
