My 25HP MLHP Yamaha is giving me fits. It starts and runs well but suddenly it will just die, as if it runs out of gas. This happens particularly if it is running at a certain RPM and I try to drop the throttle, even the slightest. The fuel pump is pretty new but I am going to try to get a gauge and run a vacuum test. I suspect an air leak or the diaphragm is bad, although it looks good.
I will run at higher RPM's well and dies when at idle or even when dropping down from higher speeds, before even getting to idle.
what are the top two or three items to check/fix/inspect first in this case.
