Took the day off today. Just the wife and I planning on burning the rest of the fuel out of the boat. It started, idled out of the marina, throttled down and got on plane. Then QUIT !!! Think it's a fuel pump. Gunna stop at a shop here in Boulder City. What a bust!!!

Well at least you're on the water. Probably doesn't help you right now, but I'd rather be dead in the water than stuck behind a desk :D Hope its nothing major.

Motor runs great.. Got about 50 hours on it now, and it's never used a drop of oil :shock: I kinda half expected to loose a lifter by now with the spring pressures you guys talked me into :P, but so far so good. I still think it needs more cam, but what do I know...LOL.
Good to see you on here..
:action-smiley-035:
You went thru enough hell, you paid enough dues to enjoy it.

In the second pic, you can see water on the low pick up side (this is the side with the filter. Mechanic said to make sure and change the "flat" filter located below the canister filter. The water he said is caused by the ethanol in today's fuel.
High pressure pump ($315) is shot. Low pressure ($250) might be ok, but gonna change it while its open. Both filters ($90 canister and flat). Add an hour and half for labor, and I will be on the water Thursday.
Now I have to fix the cooler full of beer.

Ethanol is one of the worst things our "government" has done to us. At least it doesn't look too serious. I'm sure you have better things to spend your hard earned dough on. Sucks.
