Trying to help the neighbor with his boat, the issue is- At idle out of gear the motor has a miss or hic-up. Once every 5 seconds or so it would act as though it lost spark, and miss and then idle fine again, but cycling in this manner. The problem has become more pronounced and now it will stall at idle out of gear, in most cases when you put it into gear it will also stall. When you can manage to get a rev and get it on plane, it seems to run fine. I pulled the carbs off today and made sure there was no debris/trash in the bowls and also removed and cleaned what I assume were the low and high speed jets as well as making sure the inlet line was clear. Also replace the plugs (the old ones were slightly worn) repaired a poor plug wire at the coils and verified proper connections at the coil packs. This boat gets used a TON and I really didnt expect to find anything in the fuel- but had to be sure, Im at a loss here guys and could use a hand.
Went a little further this eve. Compression @150 lbs across the board and spark appears very strong on all 3 holes spinning over with the wire grounded. I gotta think I missed something in the carbs - anyone ????
