Went down to the boat tonight to go out. bb chevy point ignition Started her up to warm up after about 5 minutes she sputtered and died I had replaced the resistor while trouble shooting a different problem about 2 years ago, it only had about 30 hrs on it.. I check and the ballast resistor had failed. I replaced it with my spare the one I removed 2 years ago and off we went. About 1.5 hours later I'm returning to the dock and she dies about 50 feet off the float would not restart. Luckily the wind and the current were with us and we floated into the dock. I checked and the ballast resistor had failed again. I had an old resistor and I installed it and she started right up. Any ideas on what could be causing this. The only thing I did this year was install a new starter and of course a tune up. I'm wondering if I swapped the r and s wires on the solinoid when I installed the starter if it would start at all or be causing this. I'm going to go buy a couple more resistors just in case but if they only last 1.5 hrs I'm not going to be going far. She has been running real good since she went in Memorial Day. Any Ideas?
