I've been trying to get this motor running right for ever. Runs fine on a hose but horrible in the water. Won't idle, or accelerate but runs at top end great. If you give it full throttle from trolling it will sit there at low rpm for a min and then for no reason get to speed. Also, plugs for all cylinders are covered with oil like it's getting way too much but it's a brand new OEM VRO pump.
Has good compression, spark, carbs are all cleaned and inspected. New VRO pump, one new power pack. New plug wires.
When the air box is off one carb bank seems normal but the other one spits gas out the carbs and puffs and spits sometimes. It's the side with the old power pack. I was thinking reed valves too but didn't want to completely take all carbs off to check. But would that make all the plugs foul?
When I took the carbs off the bowls were all full of fuel.
I am going to replace the other power pack once it gets here. But other than that I am at a loss.
