The boat has been running great since I put in new LP fuel pump earlier in the summer. Ski 5+ days a week. Today, took some runs with my wife and then helped tow a friend a very short distance. On way back home (~15 min. boat ride) we ran into a bunch of tuber wakes. I was going slow, maybe 15MPH, and it was as if I hit the kill switch. Couldn't hear full pump when tried to restart. Spent a few minutes looking for a loose wire...even undid kill switch and put back. Nothing obvious. After about 5 minutes, I tried to start her, could hear the full pump and she started right up. Ran great back to dock.
Any ideas? I'm gone tomorrow and the wife is taking the "girls" out to ski. Don't want it to happen to them without me there (to paddle) (lol) ~Pete |

You might want to change the FP relay. They are not expensive. Search the site & you can find the generic part #.

Thanks, will do.
Couldn't get it to replicate the problem, so relay makes sense. |

Boat is still running great and not reproducing the problem (thankfully)... Think I'll get the relay anyways... NAPA is most convenient for me, Has anyone had problems with the part #AR174 FP relay from NAPA? If not, I'll drive into town and get one in the next day or two.
Thanks again. ~Pete |
