"My sweetie is a 88 bayliner w/ a 3.0L OMC / Cobra Outdrive. I have had a $5k new engine installed from Jasper Engines and a good mechanic who seems to have ran out of ideas on what is still wrong. Initially I had a busted block which lead to the new engine. It runs like a beauty on the dyno maxing out at 4800rmps. When in the water, it fires right up, idles perfectly, and is perfect at no wake. Once the boat gets to about 3/4ths throttle, the engine bogs down and boat wont go over 3000rmps. We have had the timing set dead perfect, and had the dist function tested. What else could it be??? I'm wondering if I should try a new fuel pump? Could something that simple cause the problem? Mechanic says carb is in good shape. Hope you can help!!"
