1983 40 HP Merc 2 cylinder. Bought this 15 foot Rinker and and motor off an old timer that said everything was fine. The problem is that the motor starts right up and runs good at slow speeds and mid speeds but cuts out at wot. Then sometimes it starts to miss at mid speeds. I have drained the fuel tank and replaced fuel with no ethanal fuel. I replaced external fuel lines and primer bulb, bulb is vertical arrow pointing up. It is an after market bulb though?? I think it is fuel related but can not think of anything else to try. The filter in the tank is clean as is the one on the engine. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!! Respectfully, Don
