Hey everyone. I recently acquired a 95 citation 1900cuddy. 3.0lx powered and I'm having issues. Don't know maintenance history at all. Cleaned carb when got it, ran great for a while then started blowing black smoke. July 4th this year the carb fell off the throttle plate and its been down hill since. Ended up doing plugs, wires, cap, rotor, re built carb several times and eventually a head gasket and set timing. Boat runs like a champ on the trailer with muffs.. But in the water, runs rough still, and at wot it falls all over itself. Boat seems to have been cobbed up over time.. Has inline fuel filters, which I will change this weekend. Any thoughts on why it would stumble all over itself. Sounds like its starving for fuel at wot. Boat was great in the beginning.. Would hit 40-41 mph.. Now... I'm lucky I can hit 35 with a struggle.. Thoughts?? I'm new to boating so I'm clueless. I am a car mechanic of it helps.
