Default For Bill, the Evinrude service guy...

Got a question for you.

Somebody I know has a early 2000 200 FICHT like mine. He has about
450 hours on it according to the computer. Lately (like the last
couple of years), he has had a series of problems with the engine -
seems like he will go 5/6 hours trouble free, then an oiling problem.
Another 5/6 hours, electrical problem (stator). Another 5/6 hours,
fuel delivery problem - some will repeat, some will not. The engine
is worked on by a very competent, long time E/J technician, so it's
not the mechanic.

While the comuter is picking up the errors post event, it would appear
that it's not catching whatever is causing these seemingly random, yet
connected events. The computer has been updated three times, so it
would appear it's not that.

Any ideas?

Later,
