Hi all,
I recently purchaseda 2010 Beneteau Antares 580 with a 2007 Honda BF75D outboard.
Mecanic changes impeller and oil before going out the firsttime.
After an hour an intermitent alarm went off and after thatthe engine stalled.
Engine started without problem and we returned at 3500 rpmwithout problem.
Resulted to be water in the gas, so we changed all the gas,filters and cleaned both separators.
Got on the water again, trolling a few days without problemsand returning at 3500 rpm.
Tried WOT for a change and after a minute the engine stalledand the temperature light and alarm got on.
The engine started without any alarm after that, got back tobase and called the mecanic.
As he was to cometake a look I told him to take a look at the fresh wáter intake also because itseemed to be stuck.
He changed the thermostat as it was rusty and dirty and withsome salt on it, but he didn´t look at the intake.
Tried again and had the same problem.
Got the boat out of the water and the mecanic had a look atit again, taking the leg of.
Said the tube at the entrance of the cooling circuit haddirt in it, that might be the cause.
Also the fresh water intake valve was stuck due to salt slagand dirt.
Put the hose on it, water came out without problem (one ortwo pieces of sand)and the water from the pee hole came out strong.
Got out again and after a while had the same problem.
Now I told him to replace the temperature sensor….
Anyone any ideas ?
Thanks
