    Continuing Problem with 2021 VP 250 hp 4.3 DI

    Hi Dave, What did you connect the oil extractor to? Were these pressures checked with the engine running under moderate load? Assuming this was a valid pressure test and you have confidence in your fuel pressure tester, yes that's a little low. Because it's just a little low I would be checking...

    Continuing Problem with 2021 VP 250 hp 4.3 DI

    Hey Dave, I don't know how to post them on iBoats. But it can be done. Here is a recent post. https://forums.iboats.com/threads/8-1-gi-j-spn-29-fmi-4-697-698-699-fmi-5-spn-713-fmi-4.778988/ I'm sorry, but I don't do anything outside of the board.

    Also according to the Volvo website, you have an open recall? Your product is subject to a recall campaign. Please contact your Volvo Penta service dealer to schedule an appointment. State your serial number as a reference. Might want to ask your dealer about this.

    Continuing Problem with 2021 VP 250 hp 4.3 DI

    I'm not aware of any screens in this system, other then in the injectors. Your phone contact might have been thinking about older systems with the fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail. Yes, 1st step is to check the 2 pressures at the pump. top port is 60 ± 5 PSI bottom port is 10–40 PSI...

    EVC Control panel fault w/code

    The reason I asked about the extra panels is they go before the control panel, so change the trouble shooting. You are on the right track. Maybe this will help.

    EVC Control panel fault w/code

    First things first. What other panels are installed on the boat? power trim panel? sport fish panel? Yes the control panel can be replaced, but will require you to run auto config. Any time a node has been added into the system or a node has been replaced, an auto config must be performed...

    Boat will run perfect in neutral and will rev up in neutral but will die instantly

    I hope the ignition switch fixes it -- cheap and easy repair. And from your description of it, due for replacement anyways. But, a bad ignition switch doesn't fit with the symptoms you have described. Based on the engine dyeing only when you shift into gear. If this is happening out of the water...

    Boat will run perfect in neutral and will rev up in neutral but will die instantly

    Could be many things, first things first. Is this happening in the lake or on the trailer on the flusher?

    Volvo diagnostic port

    Hopefully they can help. Try to get it registered in your name. My experience is that service bulletins don't show up unless it's registered. Please update us with what you find.

    Yes more logs would help. Both a key on engine off throttle monitor .rec, slowly advancing throttle lever (10 seconds) and slowly returning to idle. If possible repeat this in the water under load. So far the logs I've seen appear to be "no load" these aren't as helpful because this is a speed...

    8.1 Gi-J SPN 29 FMI 4, 697, 698, 699 FMI 5, SPN 713 FMI 4

    Yes, those are the files I wanted. "Question, should the ignition switch voltage be the same as battery voltage? It's a little lower." That's very common to see be a bit lower. The battery feed goes to pins 60 + 79 and battery voltage is an average of those two. ignition feed goes all the up to...

    muc notes --- replaced TCP with new. The only change was that one fault never return which was SPN 91 FMI 4. The SPNs 697,698,699+713 will always be there if you have can bus gauges and I think you do because you're not complaining that no gauges work. SPN 29/FMI 4 is DTC 2127 = TCP #2...

    Snapped the dreaded Mercruiser transom Drive Lube Fitting....

    Yup, this job sucks! Here are my tricks. 1/2" drill bit from the outside of the boat, (MerCruiser was nice enough to put a little dimple right in the middle) drill until the head snaps off (don't damage the gimbal housing) now push the stem that's left into the boat. This will make it much...

    Penta V6-280 alarm in with DTCs 1155 and 1157

    Late to the party here and glad @parsenault seems to have found the problem. I will second the need for good battery power on these newer engines. At Volvo and Mercury tech schools they really push having the correct fully charged battery with recommended CCAs. One of the instructors told me...

    Yes, very interesting! S/N, product number and engine designation comes up as an 2003-2005 engine. This would be a MEFI controller. The picture posted shows a EGC controller. The picture of the DLC connectors show a normal MEFI connector and the scan tool side of a EGC connector. I seem to...
