I have twin 350s, 2001, MEFI 3 as well.
I did new fuel pumps, coolers, and pressure regulators. Solved a lot of my similar issues. it's a hassle to get all that off in the hull, so I just did 'all the parts'. The pump would work when it wanted to, and the pressure regulator was all rusted up.

UPDATE: filled with fresh 93 and still have the same issue. 30 percent throttle to hot start. if you run boat and turn the boat off. it starts back up immediately and runs great. even after sitting for a few min. This is BOTH engines.
note, this has happened twice after boat sitting for about an hour and half each time.

And, unrelated perhaps, but why 93 octane?

FOR SURE, Im going out tomorrow. gonna try and do some starting tests here and there and see if it happens in 30 min, or 1 hour. get some real time frames. cause it very well could be vapor lock. want to try and rule that out. ill be out for 6-7 hours tomorrow.
