I have a 1990 Four Winns 225 Sundowner with the 5.8L engine and only 400 hours. I have taken the boat out 4 times in the last 6 days; the first three times everything worked perfectly and the boat ran @ speeds as fast as 40 and did not have any issues. Then the last 3 times at various speeds and conditions it abruptly lost power and backfired through the carb. I throttled back to idle and it still backfired some but kept running and backfired much less. I could then power back up and run fine for sometimes an hour or sometimes a moment or a few minutes.
I am not sure where to begin troubleshooting since it is not consistent.
Any ideas?
