Hi
Strange problem 2006 honda 225 outboards works perfect most of the time. About 2 weeks ago, I was cruising at about 4,000 rpms and the port engine lost about 1/2 power, started shaking and the check engine light went on. I shut it down immediately and checked to make sure nothing was wrapped around the lower unit and started it up again, and it worked perfectly. I took it out a few more times with no problem, then it happened again a few times. Maybe once every 3 hours of engine use at first, but yesterday it happened a few times.. always above 2,000 rpms. I can go slow for long periods with no problem.
I changed the racor gas/ water separator (the gas was perfectly clean - no water).
Any ideas?
I had the O2 sensor changed twice on this engine - last time was in April and it had the exhaust modification done. This doesn't feel like the o2 sensor - when I had problems with that the engine didn't lose power or virbrate
