Was running WOT about 2 miles out when RPM fell off suddenly and engine died. Checked fuel line connection and primer bulb, both OK. Turned key to restart, hard cranking for one revolution, then fired right up. Headed back to shore, ran OK. Ran along shore line for 2-3 miles at WOT, no problems. Then trolled for 3 hours with no problems. Ran back to marina about 3 miles, no problems. What components would cause an intermittent failure like this? Fuel pump, power packs, coils?? I believe that any tests performed would be normal as now it runs fine, but I would like to prevent another breakdown, possibly under worse conditions. Any advise would be appreciated.
