Thanks for watching, sounds like you’ve been busy. Bummer to hear you’re still experiencing issues. The next likely cause is either contaminated fuel, or a carburetor that needs to be rebuilt or replaced all together. Looking forward to hearing back from you. Keep us posted. 👍

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders alrighty man..here’s the verdict: so I had previously done a lot of work to it with no remedy to symptom..I pulled reed block (located behind carburetor) (for those who may not know) the gaskets looked very worn/brittle and not sure if it was already cracked or it cracked when I pulled reed’s off to inspect, I couldn’t find the gaskets for it so I bought a paper gasket set from Advanced Auto and traced original gaskets, put everything back together took out to the lake to test and BAM! Problem fixed!! I highly suspect it had a vacuum leak due to brittle old gaskets at reed block/cover. Another good thing to note is I also replaced all fuel lines with automotive fuel hose, It previously had the silver fuel hose you typically find on Walmart fuel kits etc. I did inspect those hose’s prior to work since they are known for the interior plastic liner degrading and clogging. But just of peace of mind and durability ended up replacing all fuel lines with automotive grade hoses. Hope this helps someone 👍🏽

@@boondocksoverlandandoutdoors That’s outstanding, awesome job and we love reading follow ups like this. Very creative and got the job done. Now it’s time to enjoy the boat. 😁👍

Thanks for watching, we appreciate you reaching out to us. Have you replaced the Ignition Coils? What parts have you recently replaced. Looking forward to hearing back from you. 🧰

Good morning ☕️ any update? Have you replaced spark plugs and wires? If so, we recommend removing any dielectric grease from plugs and boots to see if that helps. Too much to electric grease and plugs will work against you, as it will degrade engine performance.

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders I am changing out spark plugs this weekend and going to check my coil packs I started off with changing fuel pump but that did not solve the issue.

@@joshbirtchetfishing5196 Thanks for the reply, we will get this figured out together! 😎👍 That’s awesome you’re replacing the plugs this weekend, looking forward to hearing back from you. ☕️🧰

Tell the shop to give you a deal on the coils for giving you bad advice on the fuel pump.😡

@@johnfatorich3494 don't think they will but sure be nice if so.
