1991 19' Celebrity with 5.0 Mercruiser and a Alpha One II outdrive. Today while moving to a new fishing spot boat broke down. As I was slowing down and turning around at the motor I heard a whining sound. I tuned the boat off and lifted the engine cover. Restarted the boat and could still...

I have a 1983 Volvo Penta 270. I have replaced the spark plugs, rebuilt the carb, timed the engine. At first it would not even idle. Now it will and sounds pretty good. I can put it in gear and it will putt along. As I increase the throttle it dies. Unknown what to check or do now. Any...
