Boat has a mercruiser thunderbolt 4. 4barl carb. It was a 1995, but has a truck block from previous owners. Plastic cover with notch. I think timing is set wrong, since it has no marks. Might be 8* atdc. And issues with stumble when taking off. First from dock, in no wake zone for a while. Then try to take off and it coughs a few times, then fine. Once warm it won't take off pulling tubers or skiers. I don't slam it to WOT from a stop I gradually feed it but i get to about 1/4 or 1/3 throttle and it seems like it's bogging down, like rpms drop, then will rev like normal past the 1/4 throttle. And diesels a lot when shutting off. Will run for 10-15 secs. Smells of fuel after wards.
any help. Any other questions to ask me to narrow it down.
