    If it's an efi, it could be as simple as bad batt terminal and or cable connections to the engine. Or key switch. Sounds like when it wants more power there isn't enough to keep it running.

    works flawlessly until I give it power. seems like the higher output from stator is heating something up and making it lose connection

    I was thinking ign switch until trim on boat quit working at same time. is there a wire they all have in common? red fused wire? maybe hot wire splice on engine harness under tape? It is after fuse because trim at motor switch wont work without fuse

    If power is restored after the time delay a fuse isn't the issue on your gage cluster and trim switches. Can you replicate this on muffs out of the water? to make troubleshooting a bit easier?

    Never tried 16 amp. I took a 2.4 200 rotating assy and converted it to a 2.5 cooling system and 40 amp charging system. Im going to tear engine harness apart or replace and try to find a ground that they all share. I was just hoping somebody on here had ran into something similar

    I thought the 2.4 came stock with 16 amp? Keep us updated if you find the cause. This is a good one.

    They do come stock with 16 amp. I don't usually mess with anything but 2.5 stuff. I didn't have any 9/16 amp stators, so I went with 40. im real close to changing it to 16 if I cant figure it out

    It was bare 2.4 rotating assy I picked up for $300. It is just a project motor. Bobby V donated promax regulator plate for the cause.

    Have you looked at your control box? Like in case its a mechanical thing that shuts off the power? You step on the gas and the throttle plate in the box shorts out the keyed power or the hot supply to the key switch? That would explain the trim still working at the motor switch...it pulls power from somewhere else. Its far-fetched, but possible.
