I have a 1996 Challenger. I am starting to really get pissed with this boat.
When I get in the water for the first couple of mins the boat runs amazing. I plane and hit 45 50mph reving at 6900rpm. 2 mins later the boat starts stutering and I have to let off the throttle and it wont even go past 15mph. It feels like it is starving for gas. Then the rpms fluxtuate and bogs. If I shut the boat off for a few mins and then start it back up, it runs the balls for about 1 min.
Its not bad gas. Its not the plugs or the fuel filter. I put 93 octane in all the time,.,. I know it is not nessesary but I dont think it hurts.
I dont think it is the carbs either because it drives fine for a few mins
I am thinking electrical, either ignition box warms up and gives weak spark or maybe the fuel pump..
I really have no Idea. It did it all last summer.. I will not put up with it this summer If I have to I will sell it. I really dont want to because I like it.
Please help!!
