I have a 2000 model Chaparral 252 with low hours on a 5.7 Mercruiser Bravo III that has run good till last year. Idles good but does not have enough power to get the boat up on plane. Had a strong fuel smell so had a mechanic go over everything, Running through all the checks the fuel smell did not reappear. Changed the module in the distributor, checked fuel pressure to the TBI and was good. Had a shop check out the MEFI 3 and found no problems. Tried another MEFI 3 just for good measure with no improvement. No water in the fuel. Stumped now...............any ideas????
