guys, i posted earlier with a shift switch issue which now works fine.new issue now.on the hose in drive way the motor idles rough,and when i hold the throttle steady at 1200 rpm i can feel the motor starting to bog down,and the rpms will start to race up to 2000 rpm at which time i pull back on the throttle as not to over rev.also,it starts to clear up just above 1900 rpm.so the problem is 650 rpm through 1900 rpm roughly. this boat is going through a total rebuild.the only thing not new or rebuilt is the trim pump,and motor, engine wire harness. all wires,connections cleaned,and checked.barrel plug in is good.a wild guess is i have a short somewhere i can't find.is there a certain place to look at,or a certain test to run.has anyone had this same issue. i am also running on a portable gas can,fresh gas.before the rebuild in the water i noticed some of this issue,and thought we would correct it on the rebuild.1987 sea ray,25',350 a-1.thanks.
