I have a 2002 Glastron GX205 with a 5.0GL-B that starts fine, runs great, until i beach her for about an hour or so. When we push off, she fires up just fine, and as I idle out of a cove she runs great, however, when i throttle up to pull the boat onto plane, she stumbles and at times stalls. After about a minute or so of cranking her and adding throttle, she will fire back up and run great all day, until I beach her again, then she does the same thing after sitting. She has a new fuel pump, this issue happens with both the new and old fuel pump, I installed a new Edelbrock 4 barrel, she also did this with the factory 2 barrel, new cap, rotor, Taylor wires, NGK plugs, and when she runs I have 5 PSI of fuel pressure.
Any ideas as to what I may need to address???? This weekend, i replaced the main fuel line from the tank to the fuel pump, and i blew out the vent tube to make sure there was no blockage, and I made sure the floats were set correctly.. I have not tested it since making those changes.
Could I be chasing an electrical issue??? The one thing I have not verified is the fuel pressure when this occurs. Possible vapor lock??
