Was riding at wot last night and the engine started to lose power until it eventually shut off. I could not get it to crank back up. I removed the cover and the head was scorching hot. I later discovered that whoever owned the boat before me clipped the wire to the buzzer so there was no way to tell that it was overheating! So It definitely over heated. The motor has fuel, spark, and will still
turn over butt will not start. I am going to do a compression test tomorrow and I will post the results. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Zach Davis
