DC235 / DC265
Problem
Cause and Solution
The engine is loosing RPM. The boat is
not overloaded and the hull bottom and
running gear are clean and in good con-
dition.
•
The engine may be having a problem
with a sticky anti-siphon valve, located in
the fuel line near the fuel tank, that is
restricting the fuel flow. Remove & clean
or replace the anti-siphon valve.
•
The remote gasoline fuel filter could be
dirty. Inspect and replace the fuel filter.
•
The primary fuel filter on the engine may
be dirty. Inspect and replace the fuel fil-
ter.
•
The electronic engine control system on
the engine is malfunctioning. Repair the
engine control system.
•
The fuel injection system on the engine
is malfunctioning. Repair the fuel injec-
tion system.
Accessory Problems
The livewell pump runs, but does not
pump water.
•
The strainer on the intake scoop is
clogged preventing the water from get-
ting to the pump. Put the boat in reverse
to clean the strainer.
•
There is an air lock in the system. Run
the boat above 15 m.p.h. and the pick-up
scoop will force the air lock past the
pump and prime the system.
•
The thru-hull valve is not open. Open
valve.
•
The valve in the livewell is not open.
Open the valve in the livewell.
The automatic float switch on the bilge
pump raises but does not activate the
pump.
•
The in-line fuse near the battery switch
has blown. Replace the fuse.
•
The pump impeller is jammed by debris.
Clean pump impeller housing.
•
The pump is defective. Replace pump.
