    Runs great for 30 seconds

    not much done yet ... waiting for feedback on basic pump test, filter checks etc... I do not think the fuel pump was replaced ... distance to dealer seems far since OP can't get the codes checked out ??? knowing if any codes come up would help greatly ...but you are left with assumptions.

    Runs great for 30 seconds

    cracked hoses cause fuel leaks on the pressure side or lack of suction on the lift pump side knowing if any codes come up would help greatly ...but you are left with assumptions. the float " venting needle" inside the vst might be freed up as a test...if you try a backflush ...

    Runs great for 30 seconds

    unless I am wrong here the " float" is strickly a vent float in the VST reservoir. A sticky needle would cause an air lock hindering the inflow of fuel from the lift pump... depriving the high pressure pump from doing it's job. but as you all know I have developped a taste for crow :-)

    1999 Evinrude Ficht E175FPLEEC dies at high speed

    If and I say if it is the problem my understanding is that the cold solder joints on the 12+ and grd pins can be gone over to resolder them . it probably involves removing the PDP and openning the back side to reach the culprit pins If you are handy with a voltmeter you can probably poke...

    1999 Evinrude Ficht E175FPLEEC dies at high speed
