    Carb rebuild question

    No luck. Searched Holley's list before posting this thread. Also don't see it on your list. It must be a unicorn list number

    07 5.0GL WOT Issue

    I pulled the filter in the fuel line. The one in the carb body. It looked clean. I also replaced the water separator. Is there another filter I'm missing?

    07 5.0GL WOT Issue

    I should mention I also cleaned the spark arrestor. But yes it acts like it's starving for air. I assume if it was fuel related it would go lean and pop. I also verified the choke is opening all the way.

    5.0GL Possible Carb issue

    Cleaned inline filter and replaced water separator filter. Checked throttle blades and they seem to be set correctly. Still no improvement. Any other ideas?

    5.0GL Possible Carb issue

    Flame arrestor is spotless. I'll change out the filter and check the blades.

    Boat: 2007 Caravelle 204 Motor: VolvoPenta 5.0GL When running WOT with the throttle lever in WOT position the boat will loose 2-3 mph but if I back slightly off the throttle it picks 2-3 mph back up. Could this be a float issue seems like it may not have enough fuel supply to operate at WOT...

    95 5.7 efi injector shutting off at 3k rpm with video

    Here is a video off an off idle pull and just at 3000 rpm it stalls and shuts the right injector off. I can then pull the throttle back to 1/4 and push the throttle back up to 3000 rpm and it will repeat itself. I have slowly accelerated ever so slightly and got it to go ahead and get past...

    Prop change can you explain????

    I changed my 14x17ss Vengence prop for a 13.75x19 Aluminum. I gained about 3 mph, but the rpms stayed the same. I went up in pitch, gained MPH, and the RPMs stayed the same. I was able to trim the 19 up a tad more without porpoising I thought maybe this was allowing the RPMs to go up. Why...
