I've andolder
westerbeke that has run like a champ for years the other day I was moving to a
service dock to have my main
mast reinstalled
motor started and ran fine as usual. about 5 minutes into the run the
motor sped up 50-70
rpm and then died. it was acting as if it had run out of
fuel and would not restart. next day I got it to start again with a little squirt of starting fluid. after it started it ran fine no missing or smoking for 5 minutes then it did the same sped up and died. has anyone had a similar experience and could enlighten me as to where to start. I've already replaced one filter need to do the 2 micron but have to take the
water plumbing out of the way to get to it. I get
fuel from the
lift pump all the way to the hipressure
pump on a test. but haven't been able to get it to restart. very puzzling to me.
