No errors detected with a scanner?

thanks for your response Dunaruna, but the scanner doesn't detect any failure. Everything ok. Fuel pump pressure ok, what it seems is like theres more fuel flow than expected, and the machine turns off. What else can i test?

The merc EFI has a complicated diagnostic regime, more harm than good will come from inexperience.

First and foremost, the correct scanner will extract a code history, both soft and hard. This will point the operator in the right direction.

What scanner are you using and do you understand the data?
