I have a problem with my 1997 Evinrude 30, mod.no. BE30ELEDB (Ser.no. G03923705). Engine always starts at first attempt. New plugs. Going at full throttle a sudden loss of power often occur without any warning. Rpm instantly drops down to idle level. It doesn´t matter if engine is cold or warm. Sometimes the engine even stops. It doesn´t happen if you go just under full throttle. After a short while it is possible to give throttle again and continue the trip. The feeling you get is that the engine is not supported with enough fuel when working at max. Maybe the fuelpump is defect in a way that only shows when it is asked to work at max capacity. (You can imagine the joy experienced by the kid on waterskis behind the boat!)I have noticed that the primer bulb does not hold pump pressure the way I have been used to on other outboards/fueltanks. (This tank is an OMC with no air valve on the fuel lid.) Also: at low speed/low rpm (well over idle)you can feel small jerks in the boat (a five meter boat) but then you really have to concentrate. I have read "Dugzee´s" question of Aug 25, 2004 and all initiated answers to it. Could my problems be linked to the fuelpump as well?
