Hey guys I'm having a problem with my motor. The thing starts great and runs almost like except for one problem. When I'm running around, id say at least once or twice every outing, I will suddenly loose almost all power( almost like I have lost 3 out of 6 cylinders), this happens all varying rpms but seems to take longer to return to normal if I have been running hard. Sometimes I can pump the throttle once or twice and it catches back before I even fall off plane. The entire fuel system is new/rebuilt, new hoses with all metal clamps, new primer bulb, fuel water separator, new and rebuilt premix fuel pumps, cleaned the other fuel filters, all lines to the carbs are new, carbs were rebuilt and didn't even have much of anything in them, they are all aligned properly. Last time I checked compression everything checked out good( im going to do it again tonight just to be safe) I checked the filters after this occurs and there's not any debris in them. I have an OMC/Carb primer bulb in the mail just in case, but have switched primer bulbs twice already and the problem didn't seem to change.
The electrical system has a new regulator and one new powerpack.
Guys I am at my wits end I have spent 3 months bringing this motor back and this little blip in power is the only thing keeping me from having confidence in my motor.
I just want to see if anyone may have any idea what this may be.
and I guess who would you all recommend as a good reliable mechanic around here( I live in Athens) to possibly help me diagnose the problem.
