Ok, here's what was going on...New 21i running great, but every now and then when accelerating, rpm's drop and engine starts sputtering and popping. I would have to throttle to neutral and take off again. Usually it would take off fine.
Told Tige about it and they said it sounded like a computer problem. Took it to Tige and they reprogrammed computer.
Took it out and it would still have the same problems, but not as often. Today (boat is @ 19 hrs about ready for the 20 hr maintenance) took off after swimming in a cove and boat does this again, but dies. Try to start it up and it won't turn over. Temp is fine, oil pressure is fine, battery is great. It's like it is a fuel filter or fuel pump problem. Had to tow it in (ticked off because this is the whole reason I got a brand new boat).
Anybody have any ideas on what this is - excluding computer, grounding, and water in fuel?
Also, will something like this be covered under warranty since it is less than 1 year from purchase and only has 19 hrs on it?
Thanks
