Fished up by the dam and caught some small
<strong class=”ido-tag-strong”>Walleyes today. Bummed I have a motor problem.
New in August 2019 Marc 60 hp. Has run great and used regularly.
Ran to the dam from HF and while going slow motor beeped 4(?) times and died. Turned the key, nothing. Not even the alarm. After about an hour it started and the trim and tilt worked.
On the way back to the ramp it died again at half throttle. Would get the starting alarm but nothing else when turning the key. Trim and tilt worked.
Motor started after I got it on the trailer and at home.
Any ideas on what is wrong?

Jim, I would say it is a Poppet valve issue. Secondly, maybe the impeller or themostats. I don’t think you’re getting enough water pressure at slower speeds. Just a guess, but the river does a number on the Poppet valve.
