The engine is a 3.0 serial 0c607719 with digital distributorless ignition. The last time out there was a quick loss of power (did it 3 times during a 15 mile run), almost like you quickly hit a kill switch. The engine did not quit nor did it come off plane just that quick moment of silence. Other than that there are no other symptoms..no sputtering or anything. Does this sound more electrical or could it be fuel related? If it sounds more electrical, anything in particular come to mind?
This was on the last time out in the fall and the boat was winterized shortly after. I will be getting her ready for the water shortly and will do filter/water separator & tune up.
Thanx!!....Dan

Sounds fuel related. Check and change your filters, you may have water or dirt in your fuel.
