I have a 2001 Evinrude 225 model # j225vxsif while crossing the bay yesterday engine was running great. Then it started to slow with throttle still in the wide open position. No alarms or warning lights. It never shut off just lost rpm. Ball was still hard. I shut the engine off started it again and engine ran fine the rest of the way. Trolled for 6 hours and started back across and the same thing happened. Just had stator, timer base and all coils replaced.
