At the end of last year, last trip out, the engine was hard to start. Cranked real good, but would not fire right away, took a while and a lot of cranking. Over the winter I changed the fuel line, filter, cleaned the plugs. On the way to the lake, I put in 15 gals of fresh gas, with the old 5 gals. Again it took a while to start. Once going it ran great and idled great up to 3k rpms. Once I gave it the throttle and hit around 4k rpms, it would slow down, like it was running out of gas. I have a kicker T8 running off the same tank/gas and it fires right up and runs great. Every time I put gas in I either add Stabil of Seafoam. Warm it starts up fine, and runs good up to 3k. I am thinking maybe the fuel pump is going bad. Any ideas, am I on the right track, should I look else where? Thanks.
