Hi, I'm a posting newb but here it goes. I went fishing today and noticed the engine occasionally running a little rough. Like it was getting ready to die, but did'nt. Immediatly thought it was fuel filter, but I have a pre-filter/ water sep. in line and should take care of any junk in the gas. When I got home I removed the fuel line (from the gas tank) at the hose connector and gas squirted back out of the engine. Almost like to much pressure in the fuel line. It seems like a plugged fuel filter or fuel pump problems. Engine ran great 99% of the time. I did notice excess fuel around engine cover, boat, and some in the water. Any ideas?? I might start with a fuel pump rebuild. Has not been serviced since purchase. Thanks for your help. Rocket
