Engines cranks and idles perfect. Runs to half speed perfect. If you advance the throtte to full, it cuts off. Sometimes you can recover by reducing the throttle immediately and the engine will continue to idle. Or, you can just crank back up easily.
Replaced fuel filter. Hooked up test tank with fresh gas, new fuel hose and bulb. Primed fuel filter, cranked perfect as always. Ran boat out up to half throttle and when I advanced the throttle, the engine cut out. Did this repeated times.
Here's where it gets tricky. It seems that under a greater load then half throttle, the engine suddenly cuts out. Wanting to test again without taking the boat out of dock, I was able to secure the boat in the dock and run the throttle to full and no issue. The engine ran as expected. No issues when tested in dock. Immediately took boat out in the open water and the boat cuts out when going over half throttle.
Thoughts?
Thank you for your consideration!
