@midlifecrisis, it for sure improved it but it still is not perfect. It is way less often that it fades out, but it does still happen from time to time. So I think it was worth the effort.

I have used on mine this system since 2013. Run on fake a lake till up to temp. Drain oil. Change oil and fuel filter. Fill new fuel filter/water separator up 1/3 full or more with 2 stroke injection oil. Add new engine oil. Start engine again on fake a lake. Let run for a min or so. Till you know new fuel/oil mixture is running through it. Shut off. Pull all of the drain plugs. Rod each hole out to verify it's not plugged. Re-install all drain plugs. Pull 4 upper water hoses. Start at lowest and fill with rv antifreeze till it over flows, re-attach, move on to the next lowest, till all 4 are full and re-attached. Wipe down engine with WD40 or similar to prevent corrosion. Unplug battery. Have moment of silence. And walk away.

I have switched to the stainless plugs from harden marine. HUGE improvement and you will never break a POS blue merc plug again.

Check the actual fuel pressure. If it is low it will not trigger the injectors. More than just depressing the shrader type valve on the rail, put a gauge on it.

So far so good. Re installed and then skied this evening. So far so good, but it was not very humid at all. I sprayed it on, recoated after about 15 min, and then left it out in the sun to dry. Seemed to dry very fast. Hope this works.

Well I opened up the gauge and sprayed the board today. Will install tonight or to borrow and let you know the results. Mine has the chrome bezel. Perfect pass told me I had to cut it off but I was able to bend the bevel part for about 1/3 the bezel and then slide it off.

I honestly really hope it takes off. We need more small companies to offer lower priced boats to challenge the "big 3" as keeps getting mentioned. These new boat prices are crazy!

I have not opened up the gauge yet. It is in winter storage till the spring. I do plan to do it when I bring it back home. Will for sure update you all on it when I do. And @wtrskier197 that is exactly how mine is as well.

I may try this stuff as well. Found in another forum to open it up and apply this to the electronics. Waterproofer for electrical strip boards.

@Chef23 I read someplace about a guy opening his up and then sealing it some how. But can't seem to find that now. And another place that said that perfect pass has a little fix for it but the guy there that I talked to didn't seen to wanna say or didn't know. Always been a huge fan of them, great customer service usually, but this all shocked me. Mine is a 2006, so not like it should be some way out dated device. Especially with so many people going to ZO I would have expected more from PP.

If anyone is upgrading from pro 6.5ng to stargazer with the new update please let me know. I may be interested in your gauge/display. Mine is starting to fade more and more often, and perfect pass, who admit that display was junk, say they stopped making the upgraded replacement and for the low cost of about $750 I could get a new display and stargazer. ONLY option I was told. Not cool.

So on my perfect pass pro 6.5ng I am starting to more and more have issues with the screen fading out on it. I have been told its VERY common on this generation of screen and perfect pass agreed that it is/was a very known issue. Now here is the biggest problem. Perfect pass says they used to make an upgraded replacement gauge, but stop a year or so ago, and now my ONLY option is to UPGRADE for low cost of just under 800 cause they ONLY make stargazer based stuff now? Anyone have any tips for making my current gauge work better. It is caused by humidity, so only have issues in the early AM sets or when its just damp out in general. An hour in the sun and its good to go. Also, everything still works, its just the display goes away. Thanks in advance, Zach J

I was on mine today and mine runs at 175deg. But I also have the black scorpion. So that's why I thought you seemed cold.

@CoolSkiGuy What engine do you have? 150 seems cold off the top of my head? If you got alarms you are best off finding someone with diacom and start there. How old are the plug wires? Depending on engine could be vapor lock.
