Thomas Wayne Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 We have an annoying problem with an '07 Nautique 196 Limited, PCM 330 HP.  At speeds under 30, engine cuts out randomly for a micro-second at a time. Not enough for skier to feel it, but very annoying to the boat crew. Problem occurs with or without the ZO turned on.We've tried:New cap, rotor, plugs, wires, "Heet" in the fuel, removing the anti-siphon device at top of fuel tank.So far nothing has improved the issue even a tiny bit. I'm hoping someone out there is familiar with this problem and knows of a fix - other than jacking it up and driving a new Malibu/Mastercraft/etc. in underneath it...TW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibug Posted July 31, 2010 Baller Share Posted July 31, 2010 It sounds like it may be a "chip/ECM issue" i had something similar on my 03 Malibu. It would not run between 2600 and 2900 rmp's; by that I mean it would go from 2599 to 2601 nothing inbetween. I think they had to switch out a chip or recalibrate something with the ECM. Might be worth a diagnostic on the ECM.

jim parr Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 TW:PCM is a great company and will stand behind their engines. This is likely a cam retard issue. Contact your dealer. There is possiblly a service bulliten about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
