"I have a 4.3 litre OMC on a 1
"I have a 4.3 litre OMC on a 1987 SeaRay. I can hook up a garden hose in the drive way and the boat will run all day long at any RPM. When I get to the river the boat starts fine and runs fine, when I launch it, I can get about a 100 yards and the motor dies and will not refire. This has happened 2x. Then when I get it home I have to manually feed it fuel then it will run all day again. I cleaned the carb thoroughly, the fuel pump is pumping, and the filters are new. But is the fuel pump possibly not pumping enough under a load in the water? Or is their some other problem? Please help anybody. Thank You."
