Keep us posted. What was strange about mine was,problems started in the port engine (same Breaking up issue) Changed the filters, no change. Changed plugs, wires, cap, rotor and coil. Engine ran super smooth at dock, took it out and runs good. Now same problem started on other engine, which already has all the same new parts. Got back to dock and port engine idles/runs like crap. Everyone is scratching their heads.
