Vapor Lock...
So I had a new starter installed in the beginning of the season and the boat has fired up perfect all season… till this weekend. My trouble occurred after the boat had been warmed up and we will stop to hang out in a bay/pick up a boarder. During these situations I will turn off the motor. Once everyone is situated I will go to fire it back up and it will just crank and crank and crank. If I slip it into neutral and give it more throttle it will eventually fire up, but I have to kick it into gear to keep it alive. It will run perfect the rest of the evening with no issues. Sadly this again happened last night when we were out boarding. I called the shop and they said it sounded like a Vapor lock issue and for $324 they could sell me a new low pressure high volume fuel pump. Has anyone else had this experience/found a cheaper solution? (I have a 2001 direct drive Mastercraft)
