i have a 5.7l v8 mercruiser carbed with thunderbolt iv ign.whilst skiing the boat suddenly started surging between 2500-4500rpm a made it back to dock then engine would not restart. changed distributor sensor and engine started and reved in neutral really well.once towing the same surging problem returned i have tried fuel lines , pump, pick up ,seperator,choked carb to pull through any blockages but still the same.engine runs well upto last quarter of throttle then surges i am beginning to think ign module but have been told they rarely go could these symptoms suggest this or something else?
