"We cannot get out of sight of the dock without experiencing trouble. Our 2001 Honda 130 engine seemingly starts fine at initial startup, but at high rpm's, it sporadically suffers a sudden loss of RPM/power, sometimes to the point of actually quitting. If it does quit in this fashion, sometimes it will restart easily; others not. It seems to act up whether using the main fuel tank or the little portable tank I bought to eliminate fuel as the issue. New plugs had no apparent effect, and the old ones looked just fine.
This engine went from Old Reliable to Scares-me-to-death.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
