Guys, Have any of you'll had a 35 van. just die on you? Full gas tank, kill switch is good and it shuts down like you just turned off the ignition? Someone told me something about a low oil shut off censor? The oil might be a little low but F***. You want to talk about freak'n out took the wife out on a pleasent Sunday run in the local marsh and this s*** happens, not to mention she's 7 MONTHS PREGNATE. Talk about some s*** talk'n all I could think about was hav'n to pack her azz out of there. Gotta get this issue resolved before anymore trips. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

It could very well be a little low on oil. Normally, just add a little oil to it and give it a crank. Most Briggs engines come with low oil shutoffs. It is a good idea to carry an extra quart of oil with you in the boat. Keep us posted as to what you find. Good luck. |

Didn't I read something about the 35vans having a wire that the insulation would rub off causing a short to ground and killing the engine???? |

Did it crank right back up or did it hesitate? |

I had to choke it a little but it would always crank back up. The tank's vent is fine, the oil looked ok when it was level, but Brooks said something about a diode wire harness. The motor is a 35 van Mud buddy. Once again any other input is greatly appreciated. Thanks Guys |

Oil sensor's on the left side (looking at the motor) single wire to it under the crank case breather tube. There's also a fuel shut off solenoid at the carb - two wires go to it. What did you do to get it started again? |

Think i may have an idea what went wrong. Oil was good, Gas tank vent was good. I had ran this motor acouple of time before with no problems, but i happen to look at the gas and i only had about a 1/4 inch of gas left in the tank (custom gas tank). The wind was blowing its azz off that day and we had some pretty choppy waves rock'n the boat a little. Do you'll think the motor my have sucked some air shut down and then caught prime again and fired right up? |

Damm! I thought that Mud Buddy had trained them things to run without gas! Oh well, there are those who have and those who will. |
