1985 twin 2.6 liter omc's.25' hydrasport. will not idle @ the coast.History;engines sat idle in the driveway 10 years before I bought them .mechanic work before launch to replace fuel/oil pumps,carburetor rebuilds,fuel replacement,gas line replacement,wiring,so on.Engines will run fine in fresh water ,at my office,on the lake.my elevation 500'.tried gas there here and no difference in lack of performance at the coast.Been through 2 mechanics, general repair carburators.trouble begins at the moment I start the engines and throughuot the trip regardless of length of time run at higher RPM's.Engines will not idle especially during forward reverse shift changes.
