"1998 5.0L Alpha Stern drive.
"1998 5.0L Alpha Stern drive. Cranks easily and runs until it reaches operating temp, then quits. Recranks ok and runs for 10 - 30 seconds and quits...this continues for 4- 5 times then it will not crank. I let it cool down and the cycle repeats itself. I have replace the ICM module but the problem continues. It's getting fuel and filter/strainers are clean. It accelerates smoothly to high rpm and runs smooth while it is running. It stops suddenly without missing. I have had the boat since 1997 and never had a problem like this. I have done regular routine maintenance...plugs, oil/lubricants, freeze protection, etc. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
