Hey guys!
Well with boating season here, I finally got time to run the boat in the lake.
After sitting for 7 months, fresh gas and the boat fired right up.
I ran the boat this weekend and found that my issue I was starting to have last season is still present.
What happens is if I run the boat at 20-30 in the lake towing a ski'er and I throttle down and kick into neutral that my idle of the boat will stay quite high. If I kick it into neutral and the idle stays high if I go into a gear (forward or reverse) in the state we get a big clunk as it kicks into gear.
The other issue I had this weekend is a new one. I was towing a ski'er at about 25 and all of a sudden the engine completely stalled out, all electronics were on with no disruption. I turned the key off, and the boat fired up with no problem and ran fine. In driving the boat now I am listening to everything and I get a very random stutter almost like a misfire, but I don't know for sure.

Last season I changed out the spark plugs and distributor cap as a maintenance.

Any thoughts on either of these issues?

Thanks!
