This is a new one for me. It has been difficult to diagnose this issue.
Started a month or so ago with the starboard motor. ONLY when accelerating out of the hole will I get an alarm. If I very slowly bring the boat up to speed there is a chance that it wont come on...
I checked the paperwork I recieved when I bought the boat three years ago. 2006 KeyWest 268 with a pair of BF150's. Sold new in 2008. It had 280 hours on it and the seller produced a bill from his marina where the 300 hour service was done. New impellers as well as thermostats and the rest of the normal maintenance items.
The rig now has 550 hours and when this started I pulled the LU's and put in new impellers. I did leave the metal housings. Buttoned everything up and damned if the same thing happened.
Once on plane and at any speed, it runs great. Good pee stream and no alarms once underway.
Only when accelerating. Any ideas?
I'm considering poppet/bypass valve...but wouldn't that be a constant problem. Especially at speed?
Thanks!
