My VRO engine ahs had the oil line blocked on the vro pump and fill tank with oil now. ok so she starts fine and first time and will run all day with muffs on and in gear out of the water puts a good revs and good water from pump. I launch boat and she runs awful, will start at first very slow at pick up and will not tick over so stalls while putting into gear if she stalls very hard to start, i have looked at the fuel pipe and replaced no leaks and bulb is ok. any tips any clues where to start.

You are not running on all three cylinders. They will sound great, on the muffs, running on one or two cylinders.

1. Compression? Should be over 100 PSI and within 10% of each other.
2. Spark good on all three?
3. Next is carb. cleaning and rebuilding.
