I just bought a 2000 Cobia 224 with a 2000 yamaha 200 ox66. (2 stroke, fuel injected). My first boat. 1700 original hours on both, but well maintained. First couple runs went phenomenal.
I ran the tank low, then filled it. (Not sure if coincidental, I dont think so. )
All of a sudden while going full throttle it started to surge, and eventually went into limp mode. I learned the key is very touchy. If i start it (always starts fine) then leave it on (RUN) , I have no gauges. This seems to be when limp mode is triggered. If i tweak the key barely to the right, (START) i get full gauges and everything runs great until I hit a wave and the gauges go off and alarm sounds.
Boat only turns off when inbetween (OFF) and (ON)
Only other thing I can think of is that my oil tank is only at 3/4. ???? I dont believe spark plugs or battery connections is the issue when she runs so good when I have no problems with gauges.
I impulse bought part number 704-82570-12-00 yesterday.
