"My 2006 Mercruiser 4.3L Carb
"My 2006 Mercruiser 4.3L Carb 190HP I/O ran fine for about 45 minutes before dying/stalling out while underway and without warning at about 1800 RPM. I tried to start up the engine but it was completely dead; no engine cranking sound, no audio warning alarm either. I checked all electrical gauges and all were out. I then checked all battery connections, fuses, wiring, etc and all seemed normal. I resetted the big, red "Reset" button for the electrical overload protection system and the engine started up OK. I turned around back to port and engine ran fine for 10-15 mins, but it stalled again at about the same RPM and conditions as before. After resetting the overload electrical system breaker for a second time, the engine finally restarted and I was able to get safe to port but only at a very low RPM and minimal, almost idling speed.
Any idea what might be causing this guys? :-?"
