I just purchased a Stratos bass boat with this engine Model# E175FPLSSR that starts great when I back it in the water. Runs great as well, however after it has been turned off for an hour or so of fishing, it won't restart for about 20 minutes. I wait for my check lights to go off and then wait...
I have a 1976 Evinrude 70HP motor (model number 70673D) that starts fine and runs great until today. It is mounted to a 1987 Sylvan bass boat. The problem happened after I had been fishing for a few hours, started up the engine and took off at almost full throttle. Slowed down for a no wake...
