Hi, new boat owner here that needs help.
1989 3.0L mercruiser, alpha 1. Starts up cold right away, runs great for about 20-30 minutes, stalls and will not start. If I let it sit for about 45 mins. it will start and run very well untill it stalls or is shut off. Left me stranded 4 times now. Converted to pertronix system when I first bought it. I have checked for fuel prob.(looked in carb, saw fuel when throttle was opened). Could it be some sort of electrical prob? The boat runs great after you can start it!
Runs great on muffs, will start all day. I am at my wits end with this boat. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
