Boat was running good and just quit. Now won’t start

1 comments:

May 26, 2025

Possible causes for a Sea Ray 240 Sundeck with a MerCruiser 350 Mag engine to quit running and not start again include:

- Bad fuel
- Issues with the fuel/water separator
- Problems with the battery or battery switch
- A faulty impeller (though it was reportedly changed recently)

These issues can affect fuel delivery, electrical power, or cooling, leading to engine shutdown.
