Wellcraft Nova XL 1985 with metal fuel lines. Runs fine although I have stalling problem. I will run at different speeds with the blower on all the time and she will stall out. I wait for 15-20 minutes and she will restart and usally get me home however sometimes it will happen again and I need to wait another 15-20 minutes. I notice the Temp gage runs 200F at idle when not in motion however once under motion she will drop to 160F or below. I think I have a bad impeller in the lower unit that woud explain this however any ideas on why she stalls???? I have noticed fuel vapor coming from the carb and the air cleaner has shown black soot. Engine has 160 hours and look like a rebuilt or new carb was installed. Return fuel line looked plugged so I have removed this and will replace with new. Notice droplets in this hose. Fuel separator replaced and all gas removed and replaced with new. I have removed the fuel separator and did not find it full of water. Any help appreciated!!!! Love this boat as she is a tank in the water!!!!!!!!
