tried to post earlier & something happened i apologize if there is an incomplete posting my merc 115 6 cyl bogs down when i throttle up and the gas bulb collapse a guy at the duck said my bulb had a hole and another guy had some duct tape so i taped it up and took it out for a test spin. The per formance was slightly better but after getting up on plane still bogs out. Put the boat on the trailer and once in the parking lot to secure the boat for the road i took a look at my fuel line and noticed the connection at the gas tank locks into place but the side opposite where the fuel travels out of the tank into the fuel line has a 1/8 to 3/16 inch gap and has play in it. Is it normal for the gas tank connection to have that play in it or is that not acceptable ? My motor is freshly rebuilt with a new prop and impeller & it runs great with the muffs attached but i don't rev it up without a load on it. Also it will idle great in the water and even a bit above an idle she will putt right along no stumbles or hesitations i just need to know if i'm looking in the right direction as far as thinking it's a fuel problem
