I posted about the flooding issue I had a few weeks ago. Fixed that problem, but now it starts and idols fine but after 1400 RPMs it cuts out and stalls. If I throttle back soon enough I can catch it before it completly stalls but will not get above 1400 rpms without having this issue. I spoke with a mechanic and he thinks it's an ignition problem. Any suggestions?
Again I have a 1982 Mercruiser 140 3.0 181 GM
Things I have done are. New plugs, cap, rotor, point, condensor, oil, float, new coil 2 years ago. Have not been able to find the external resistor though. So I can't say how it looks. The plugs are 1 size hotter than what the plate calls for. Could that have anything to do with the problem?
