I got this motor last year, rebuild carbs, lower unit replaced all fuel hoses added water separator and by-passed VRO, mixing gas 50:1 with ethanol free gas since rebuild. Motor has ran like a dream I try not to go above 4000 rpm it pegs at 5000 rpm and makes boat fly, so far loved this motor. Last time on lake it lost power would not go above 2500 rpm and stalled on me constantly at low RPM's. Also notices it was leaking gas in the lake as if it was running too rich or going right truw the system, removed cover no gas present on engine or carbs. Changed plugs I use the Champion QL78YC put it back in the water same issue. can it be a simple carb adjustment or do I need to rebuild again, rebuild kits are only $16 a piece but it worried me when I saw how much gas it was putting in the lake went thru 3 times as much gas as normal, please advise.
Thank you much for any help.
