OS 385

Problem Cause and Solution

The engine is loosing RPM. The boat is

not overloaded and the hull bottom and

running gear are clean and in good con-

dition.

• The engine may be having a problem

with a sticky anti-siphon valve, located in

the fuel line near the fuel tank, that is

restricting the fuel flow. Remove & clean

or replace the anti-siphon valve.

• The remote gasoline fuel filter could be

dirty. Inspect and replace the fuel filter.

• The primary fuel filter on the engine may

be dirty. Inspect and replace the fuel fil-

ter.

• The electronic engine control system on

the engine is malfunctioning. Repair the

engine control system.

• The fuel injection system on the engine

is malfunctioning. Repair the fuel injec-

tion system.

Accessory Problems

The livewell pump runs, but does not

pump water.

• The strainer on the intake scoop is

clogged preventing the water from get-

ting to the pump. Put the boat in reverse

to clean the strainer.

• There is an air lock in the system. Run

the boat above 15 m.p.h. and the pick-up

scoop will force the air lock past the

pump and prime the system.

• The thru-hull valve is not open. Open

valve.

• The valve in the livewell is not open.

Open the valve in the livewell.

The automatic float switch on the bilge

pump raises but does not activate the

pump.

• The in-line fuse near the battery switch

has blown. Replace the fuse.

• The pump impeller is jammed by debris.

Clean pump impeller housing.

• The pump is defective. Replace pump.
