I hope you guys can help me with this problem.
The motor start easily. Out of the water I have no problem. When I go in the water it maintains good idle speed in forward and reverse. Then when I start acceleration it turns off. Looks like an air-gas strangled.

It starts again like nothing happened. Then I startr acceleration again pressing the choke and it runs perfectly well. The choke is only needed to pass 2500 rpm. Then it runs smooth and steady.

Thanks for the help.

fuel restriction, contaminated carbs, mid speed jets. using the primer bypasses the carbs, and injects fuel directly into the intake.

OK Thanks for the info. I will check the fuel lines first. I?m sure carbs are not contaminated but I will check them to. When you said mid speed jets, what do you mean? Do I have to install bigger gas jets? I haven?t change them. I have #30 air jets at and gas jet at #72. Thanks again.
