  • DF 175 missing at cruise

    I have twin 2018 DF 175 set up, engines are at 100 hours each. The starboard engine has recently began a slight miss at around 4000 rpm. The obvious symptoms are a slight sound similar to a muffled back fire and you can see the engine shake ever so slightly. Only a few times has it been severe enough to feel in the performance of the vessel. The C10 gauge alarm history indicates a 2-4 code that was acknowledged. I do not recall this alarm occurring but the alarm for the 100 hour oil change notice had just started so in bright sunlight, I may have thought it was the oil change alarm and acknowledged without reading. I will be taking it to the dealership that installed but wanted to get some opinions ahead of that visit. Any thoughts or obvious issue that could be the culpriit?

    you might check fuel hoses to see if everything is tight and not leaking air into system
    check condition of fuel bulb -- if it is collapsed the fuel tank may not be breathing correctly and creating a vacuum that basically is starving fuel
    might check the spark plugs to verify no damage
