Hi Everyone,
I'm having trouble with on of the two 3D's I recently purchased.
They are 2005 787 3D RFIs. The one Ski fires up every time first try no trouble. I can take it out and if I'm not driving it too hard it will run great the whole ride. If I go full out, in about 3 min it seems to go in limp mode, or possibly just run on one cylinder. The plugs don't seem to be fouled, and no check engine light comes on. I've read in the diagnostic procedures that the only time the ski goes into limp mode with no check engine light is if the battery has to much voltage, but it only limits the rpm to 5100. I would guess my rpm to be around 1500, and the motor is still running fairly smooth.
If I let the ski cool down for 15 min it fires right back up and runs like a top again for about 3min.
I've tried new plugs, swapping coils, water temperature sensors, and ECM's.
I'm not much of a mechanic but I'd like to learn, can someone point me in the right direction of where to start.
Thanks
