    No beep alarms?  They just stall at idle?  Can you rev the engines up to 2500 rpm in neutral?  What happens when you restart them ... same thing, stall after a minute?  

    What did you do to check the fuel?  

    What is the boat's history ... how long have you owned it, and how well were the engines running before this?  

    Oh ... welcome to the forum.  Best 342 resource in the world.

    Both engines...sounds like no fuel. Fuel valves on?

    IAC maybe if it runs okay with revs. Typically would get 2 beeps.

    I had a similar problem with my Volvo Pentas and it turned out to be clogged fuel pressure regulators.  It's a simple (and cheap) fix.
