One of a pair of 2007 BF175's. Will run all day just fine, but if you up anchor after a stop and then bring it up on to the plane at the normal rate it will alarm and go into safe mode. Restart it and the problem goes away if you then ease it up onto the plane at a slower rate. It will also alarm if you go WOT for a couple of minutes.
So far - has a new O2 sensor as initial fault codes suggested this according to the mechanic. This did get rid of a previous alarm that occurred at low rpm's, but didn't fix the WOT alarm. Don't run WOT so that wasn't a major issue. The getting on the plane alarm is a new one and is an issue.
Have pulled and checked thermostats plus shot the head temps (at the dock) whilst running. All 4 heads on both engines show similar temps.
Checked for water in the filters
Checked alternator voltages
Just now I jumpered the connector for the fault codes and got a steady on MIL light (no blinks) even though this problem happened multiple times over the weekend trip.
Anyone seen similar before or have some inspirational ideas?
Was wondering if the HP fuel filter might cause this but according to the mechanic's invoicing this was changed not that long ago.
Any ideas why I can't pull fault codes after the engine was entering 'safe mode' a day ago?
All input appreciated.
