Quinte Fishing

Hey everyone, I was out on the boat the other night and everything was going great till I had the boat going full throttle. After about 20 seconds and every 20 - 30 seconds after that the motor would hesitate for a sec or two and then recover. This happened every time I was at full throttle. If I backed down a bit the motor ran fine. What could it be? Fuel pump, gas line??? I did not not try to pump the primer but plan to this weekend when I am out. I am also adding fuel stabalizer to see if that could be the problem. If anyone has any insight to this problem, your advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

im gonna blame it on cheap crappy gas lol.......... try running some high test and see if it changes, if the gas isnt burning fast enough at full throtle it will load up and begin to choke out on you. of course this is just a mad guess but if its running good at lower speeds might just be the problem, this ethanoul is really messing things up. could try octain boost if you already have a full tank

It could be sucking air? Look at the nozzle on the tank as well as your hose on both ends.
