I bought a 79 bayliner capri with a 70 hp evinrude on it. the motor ran like a top. I took it out two times prior to it breaking and it was fast, very fast... ran like a top. at the end of the second trip (about 2 hrs of ripping around) my friend was getting the trailer backed into the water and i went for one last blast, I was at full throttle when it just lost 90% power. i thought at first that i ran out of gas, but it stayed at 10% power all the way back to the dock, then i took it out today for a few hrs, couldnt get it to run properly. it starts, i changed plugs, just no power. and now when you full throttle it, it just dies like its flooding. HELP please... thank you very much... oh runs fine in neutral, i havent revved the heck out of it, but i can tell it is running perfectly in neutral...

start at the beginning, compression 100psi or more, with in 10% of each other. spark should just 1/2 inch on each cylinder. if these are with in specs, i suggest carb cleaning and rebuilt kit, see sticky at top of forum. also idle speed stop screw adjustment. your motor should idle IN THE WATER and IN GEAR, at 650-750 rpms. the slower the better. you could also have a fuel pump going bad, air leak in fuel line.
