ok so i took the boat to my buddy whos a boat mechanic he told me that the pump was fine to take off both carboraters and bring them to him he was gonna check um and see if they needed to be clean so i figure out how to get um off bring um to himthey were clean as a whistle and he decided to clea um anyways for me (couldnt hurt) get back home put um back on then start it does the same thing so i take it back over to him he then looks at the idle mixture screw? correct me if im wrong but he tightented them up and that seemed to solve the problem lol was just an easy fix after all took her out for a ride and it ran good for about 45 mins to an hr but was rough so called it a day.. thankf for all the help though guys
