HELP! I have a OptiMax 200 that has 33 hours. Here's the situation: No issues starting the engine when first putting in at the ramp, and no issues when first running down the lake. I run short distance due to the water I'm fishing. I'll then troll around for 2 to 3 hours fishing and then try and fire up the motor. Turns over and tries to fire, but just doesn't "catch". I've been stuck 3x now and had to troll back to the ramp. I've had it in for service after each time and the engine is checking in with no problems. The time before last, they said my ignition switch was bad and replaced. After the new switch, I was out this past weekend and you guessed it, ran fine when I first put in, then after a few hours of no use, I could not get it started again.

I run a Lowrance 332c GPS / Fishfinder and really is the only thing I have powered up when fishing.

Evinrude’s main claim to fame is that its E-TEC engines only require servicing once every three years, or 300 hours. This gives the Canadian outboard company a significant advantage over its competitors in regards to savings on servicing costs and reducing time off the water.
