Morning all, I was out fishing earlier in the week and was deep water fishing with my engine idling. (270 SD with 6.2L & B3 drive) Just after I pulled up my line on the electric reel my engine died. I tried to crank it up and it would spin over just fine but wouldn't catch to start. I then pushed the throttle only button down by the pivot point of the handle and moved the handle forward to give it more throttle and it started, but it was not in gear. When I pulled back on the handle to get to neutral in order to put it into gear the engine died again. I did the same thing to get it started again and then quickly moved the handle to get it into reverse, and then quickly moved the handle forward again to get it into forward drive and eventually got home with engine alarms beeping. Water temp, voltage, oil pressure, all looked fine but check engine was displayed on Smart Systems. I haven't got a scanner to see what the codes are yet but does anybody know what this could be? Maybe IAC valve?
