Hello,my problem seems like something that Ive read on this forum before,but here goes...Ive got a 2000 reinell 200c,5.0 gi volvo penta ,it cuts out after coming off idle and will not rev up it just dies,if I just fire it up and let it idle it does so for about 20-30 seconds before dieing.I changed the plugs,and fuel filter,no change.But here is something odd,I pulled the power lead off one of the electric pumps ,it would just fire up and die,then I did the same to the other pump and it would fire up...and rev good ,not die untill I tried to let it idle.Any advice before I take it to the"experts"? thanks

Hello again,
I tried pulling the fuel line and using an alternate fuel tank...it worked great untill I tried revving the engine a little.Also is it possible to clear the fuel line with compressed air?Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanks
