Simple, needs more fuel added - you have lean sneeze. Its difficult to get off idle mapped correctly without going to the dyno, even then most dyno guys say you can't load the boat that much down low or their dyno won't hold the hp at that low of rpm and it gets adjusted in the boat.

Actually it can be made plenty fat to start with, but then you'd whine about the soot.

Its an easy fix. Where are you located? Maybe we can find someone to go for a boat ride with you.

If Dustin did the original reprogram, he's the guy. If not, it may be passworded by whoever programmed it and there may be some trial and error as the only way to change it if you don't have the password is to erase it and start over. Let me know, I'll send you in the right direction.

Your problem is fairly common. If it only does it off idle when being put under load - it needs more fuel. Your fuel pressure is plenty high. The IAC won't typically cause a sneeze, it will cause irratic idle, but not a sneeze. Add fuel. Was your setup put on a dyno and mapped?
