"HELP !!!
I have owned this boat for 2 seasons now and its been AWESOME. Until now... Over the weekend I noticed that upon putting it in the water and starting it there was a bit of a hesitation. This was the first time it had ever hesitated while starting. I thought nothing of it and took off. After about 3 hrs of fishing and running at idol speed (most of the time) I fired it up, took off and after about 30 or so seconds the engine cut out - not a stall but a loss of about 75% of power. I played with the throttle and finally after about 4-5 times restarting, it ran "normal" again....for about 2 hrs. So heres the problem now.
The boat was off and I went to start it and it would not start. The engine simply will not start. It cranks and acts like it wants to kick but never quite goes. I had to get that shameful tow into the docks... Any ideas here???? Fuel filter? ? Fuel pump??? Where should I start and how do I isolate the problem? Thanks for all your help and feedback!"
