hey don s i was told you are one of the best on here. i just got my boat it is a 19 ft runabout with a volvo aq131 you were the one that told me about the two water things on it. but i filled it up with like 15 gallons of gas i put in water friday ran like half of that out put it in storage then went up to gas station a old place and put like 20 gallons in it went and put it in the water still fine but when i went to plane off i normally push down on throttle little then push all the way and i was doing that and it died on me. but it started right back up so i just pushed the throttle all the way down and went on it was running not good at all but still running. i went into cove and pulled off the air filter or top of carb and looking for a choke but did not see one so put back on oh and my dad thought it was vapor locking so i took gas cap off for a few min. then we went out of cove it ran fine for 5 miles or so then we went in another cove and it came back and started again i tried that again did not help. could it be fuel filters the guy i bought off of said he only put like 5 gallans of gas in at a time.<br />thanks don s
