Am I killing my power w/ to many electronics, We had a
power failure out about 30 miles on the 2120 /150 4 stroke
05 model. Here what happened .Running a helu fan .garmin 498,
lowrance 525 ?,live well,2 ea vhf, stereo "no amp" 5'' lcd tv part time,
Btm fishing on a hole no anchor using motor to hold on
spot in & out of gear to hold on hole an motor quits.
Put in neutral an turn key an no crank.Turns over
but just didnt sound right.I could tell it wasnt spinning fast enough
Turn off all electronics an volts were 12.2 on gauge still wouldnt
start. batteries are new an are above the recommened amps
per yamaha. So got a little nervous an switched batts to both an
tunned over motor for what seem like a minute am nothing.
Tried again an it started slowly picking up an finally cranked
When I first tried to cranked it the !st time I did raise the fuel trottle
to feed it the gas an I remember the guy at the dealer told me
not to do that when cranking.Maybe I get to nervous when I lose
power out that far.Could this be caused from low batt power?
Anyone else get nervous when loosing power or is it just me?
