Engine gave up. Gas tank was found to be leaking gas out and sea water in. Changed the tank, now the enginge will not give full rpm. Gives a bit more than 3000 rpm, don`t know what it`s supposed to give, but it`s not performing normally. Have replaced the fuel filter to one with better flow and checked the ignition plugs, which look good. Did not help. What`s wrong?
 
you probably have a bad VST filter and or pump

Hm, could you explain what the VST filter is? I have changed the small fuel filter on the fuel line just inside the motor cover, i guess you are talking about something else.
It`s probably hard to explain where this pump sits, but if you could try i would appreciate it, maybe a picture or drawing?

Thanx.
 
Remove the intake manifold and dismantle the vapor chamber.
Inside is the electric high pressure pump with filter.
