I have had this boat for about 8 months now and it has been running great with no problems, until about 4 weeks ago.
It will start fine, it idles fine, put in forward or reverse, it idles fine.....but intermittently it has no power, it will start to take off, and maybe run for a few feet to a few miles even, then just slow back to an idle or just a little above idle. No matter what you do with the throttle or with the carb linkage there is no difference in the power.
It does this some times when you first take it off the trailer...or maybe run great all day then do this at the end off the day.
so temp seems to make no difference.
So I am looking for some help, here is a list of what I have done with it in the past month of working on this and have exhausted a lot of money and time, really need some help please. Running on internal fuel tank which I have cleaned. I have also checked compression and all were 125 and above. I run ethanol free fuel with marine stabil since I've bought this.
I have taken the entire fuel system apart, cleaned or replace, rebuild everything with the fuel system from the tank to the carbs.
I would like to know if anybody thinks it could be the base timer doing this, can they go bad and give this kind of problem.
All these parts have been replaced with brand new
All 3 coils
Power pack
All 3 spark plugs
All 3 Plug wires
Rebuilt Carbs
New fuel pump
Fuel line with bulb
fuel line at fuel pump
Im wondering if the base timer could be doing all this.
please somebody help!!!!!!
