Hey Guys,
I'm starting my fourth season with my Parker 2120 with a Yamaha 150 4 stroke. Everything was great until yesterday's trip. (third of the year)
I was out at the West Wall fishing. As I moved to a new location and trimmed the motor, the power cut out for a second. I let go of the button and everything came back up and continued to run. I should have headed back. I didn't. During the course of the day about four times while trimming the motor the power cut out for about a second and came back up. after a day of fishing while heading in, WITHOUT touching the Trim (on the handle) the boat cut out and motor stalled. I set her into neutral and she started back up. We made it about a 1/4 mile more and the motor Cut out and would not restart. (again without touching the trim) Checked all the fuses on the motor and all are good. we anchored, Pan Pan...Seatow. home port. This morning in yard, Same thing. It won't start, turns over, smells of gas if you turn her to long. won't start. any ideas?
