Hi folks,
Need some help troubleshooting on this repeating problem. It's a 92 OMC Cobra 5.8L engine, easy start up on cold engine and runs well at WOT after warm up and cruising over around 15-20 min. Then the rpm will fall gradually to 1500 and if I push more gas, it will stall. Then it gets worse, I can only run it at idle speed. At this point, I can smell some unburnt gas at exhaust. If I let the boat sit overnight, it will run fine for about 15-20 min. I had plugs, wires and fuel pump replaced a year ago and no improvement. Is the ignition coil get overheated or something else. I appreciate any suggestion or advice to get this problem resolved.
Thanks,
Frank
