Flying across the smooth lake Friday at 65 mph… all of a sudden, motor quit. Motor cranks but no fire. Kill switch ok. Smart craft showed no faults and passes. Pulled cowling off. Plugs were getting spark. Fuel issue?? Bulb just replaced with ethanol proof style and hard when squeezed. After a while, realized fuel pump was not running when key is turned on. . Also, no 12 vdc to fuel pump. Pulled fuse cap off on RH aft side motor and found the issue. The 20 amp fuse for the fuel pump never blew, half melted and it also melted the corner of the white fuse holder. I can only think the fuse, one “tang” may have been loose?? Got her fixed and fished on.May be wise for the Opti guys to check your fuses for tightness and….. #1 wise…. Is to have spare fuses in your boat. PS – Kudos to Pete at BCB for when I called him from the lake asking him to Google a Merc dealer close to where I was at. Super customer service!!Last edited by brewcat on January 24th, 2011, 6:42 pm, edited 1 time in total.
