Hi,
watching video could tell more.

I recently brought 2010 Honda BF225 AAK and tested on nearby river before out to ocean for salmon fishing.
When I test it at home, it only can started at second time. Even thought primed fuel before engine start, first time always failed. Though it always fired at second try. I've heard this motor was used by coastal guard with about 1000 hours and second owner used it about 200 hours.
On the river, the motor was surging at about 3-4000rpm and couldn't get plane and there was gas smell. tried few times and got same results. check the prime bulb empty and pumped until hard. From this point the motor worked great.
After return home, I tested again and got the same result as the video. So I changed:
Engine Oil and filter
Prime bulb with fuel line (west marine brand)
Low pressure fuel filter with o ring
High pressure fuel filter with o ring
Water separator filter (Racor type mounted on boat gas tank)
After changed above, same result and took the video to ask this forum.
Any advise will be appreciated.
