Glad to hear you got your boat running good again, when I bought my boat three years ago, it came with a Petronix billet dist and the Flame Thrower coil, I figured I’d keep it even after I built a new BBC engine, I heard pretty good things about them, but after it shit on me twice, and even after I took it to Petronix in Glendora and they tested it and said it’s fine. I installed an MSD Marine system with their Pro Billet dist and never looked back. I have had it for three years now and everything has worked flawlessly. I should of invested in the MSD system right away, I’ve run their products for over 25 years and never had an issue with my Chevelle or in my 7 sec alcohol dragster. Just fuel for thought if the Petronix gives you a problem in the future again.was on a budget and so far I ran it today for about 45 min and only went through a lil over a quarter tank I was shocked... usually I would of went through 3/4 tank easily! But anyways first run long summer to go.. thanks for advice

. Check needle and seat. Do you have a fuel pressure gage? I still think it is a fuel problemI do have a gauge it stays at 5psi. I stay stumbled ordered the pertronix lll and a new flamethrower coil. Let's see if that does it. Gonna do a carb rebuild today

Not sealed goes both ways chance of getting water in the fuel also.I'm understanding fuel system is a pressured vacuum is that correct air bubbles could cause bogging?
Does it have a water separator? I had a boat with similar symptoms and it had a ton of water in the gas. Dump the separator into a clear Mason jar or something similar and see if you have any water in there.I'm gonna pull the water separater today see what's going on... I was also told my gas cap could be my issue. I noticed gas coming out when it's hot parked like it evaporated out... messed up my paint apparently there not sealed? Comments on that?
Have you check your primary side float level?yes my floats seem good Iran it full throttle it ran great then just just happened again of course in the middle of lake... has no points a pertronix igniter
. I also thought the same thing but you say it run at home fine for a while.so it was consistently on for 30 mins... I didn't mention wires plugs cap and rotor are new

Pull the distributor cap and grab the rotor and see if it spins. Sounds like a mis fire to me.I pulled the cap off today it didn't look in best shape but I never checked if it turned. Ordered a new rotor cap and wires hopefully thats my issue. Should it turn pretty easily?
