[QUOTE="river warrior, post: 423431, member: 20061"] i hadn't ran my boat in about 2 months. i took it out the other night and it was really slow to accelerate and also didn't want to plane. once i got to top speed the boat still felt slow. after running it down the river for a few minutes it started bumping or jolting. the motor would have these small spikes where it would rev up. it did that all night. i don't think its bad fuel. i use 10% ethanol but i add marine sta-bil and it normally runs fine like that. i do think its a fuel issue maybe a fuel line or connectors. the jolting reminds me of the jolting you get when you run out of gas. Am i way off or does it sound like i should replace my fuel line? [/QUOTE]
