Good Afternoon,
As usual with a boat I am completely confused. I have twin BF 225's and just pulled it out of the water last week and both engines ran fine. Today I tried to start the port engine and it cranks, shows plenty of voltage but will not start. Actually doesn't even act like it wants to. Just to be sure I went ahead and changed the high pressure fuel filter, the low pressure filter and changed the oil which was the original reason for pulling it. Checked everything again and still cranks but no start. I checked the kill switch but it is a single kill switch for both motors and the Starboard motor starts and runs fine. Any help as to where to start on this thing to figure it out would be great. I have the shop manual but it doesnt help much and I am lost as to where to start trouble shooting this. Nothing changed from when it ran to put it on the trailer until today when I originally tried to start it and it ran fine last week to put it on the trailer.
Thanks
Bill
