    No speed, No power...please help!

    OK. Compression is good enough Other things don't add up. 19 pitch can reach 25 mph at 3000 ram. Go to a 17 pitch and it won't get on plane. If props are correct the ram on a 17 should be maybe 3400 or at worst 3600, which is still below max

    4.3 blows 15a fuse when you throttle up

    Dieseling is caused by to much fuel, incorrect timing, idle to high or getting to hot. If the diode was shorted, you would turn the key OFF, but the motor would not shut off. Only way to kill the motor is to pull the diode or the coil wire. When the diode shorts it will also drain the battery...

    4.3 blows 15a fuse when you throttle up

    Using your serial number the old fuse part number and new show a 15 and 20 amp. So I jumped the gun thinking yours may be a 20. Now were back to ignition components or ALT, The coil will pull more amps as rpms come up, but not that much more

    4.3 blows 15a fuse when you throttle up

    Since there the same, and the motor dies when its goes, it has to be ignition. Look under the helm for a inline fuse on the red/purple feeding the key. My guess is its a 20. If it is, I would replace the fuse with a 20. Newer motor using different ignition components and alternators only need...

    4.3 blows 15a fuse when you throttle up

    This is the simplified TKS diagram. Note if diode shorts the motor will not shut off because power back feeds to the ignition. If it opens the TKS module never opens up until the temp switch closes Wiring connections

    Smartcraft data bus fuse

    Only thing I can think of that would draw a slight bit more current as rpm increases, is the coil. That said its hardly ever the coil

    The TKS uses a 20 amp, and if that fuses blows the motor doesn't stop

    Check the vent, if its clogged pressure builds up and pressurizes the tank and fuel line. Gets high enough that the fitting leaks

    Plastic Gas Can Issues

    Bravo 3 delay into forward?

    With only 150 hours, I don't see the clutch being the issue. Most likely just need the shift cable adjusted or replaced and adjusted. Does the lube get changed every season

    Bravo 3 delay into forward?

    "IF" your using good quality gear lube, then its the sliding clutch getting glazed The extended fix is to remove the clutch and take sand paper to it, then put back together. This can last a few more seasons before the shift shaft and clutch will be replaced @tpenfield just did this on his
