I bought a 16' bowrider last year with an 85HP Force. The engine ran great this spring and summer until mid-July when my son took it out with his friends tubing on the river. Now, the motor won't idle below 1000rpm and to get it moving, I need to run it in high idle and then jam the throttle to neutral and back to forward quickly before it dies. It gets up to 32mph at 4500 rpms. I'm using a 13 1/2 x 17 prop which is much better than the 19 pitch prop that came on it. I'm not worried about going any faster I just want to be able to idle and put it in reverse if necessary without it dying. When I remove the plugs after having it out, the bottom one is shiny and the top two are covered with oil/carbon. I've replaced a coil and CD module and know I'm getting good spark. I've rebuilt the carbs and set them to 1 1/4 out from a light seat. The plugs are new. I've done a decarb twice now per the FAQ recommended procedures. There is a slick on the water at the dock when I take the boat out from the gas that apparently wasn't burned in the 3rd cylinder. I replaced the head gasket this week and the readings are 125, 125, 115 which is within range. I've got a Seloc manual that I've been using but it's pretty light in the troubleshooting dept. Any ideas out there? I'm out of them. Thanks.
