    Does any one know how much fuel should be in the fuel filter assembly while the motor is at idle or running at a higher rpm? The assembly will fill up when I first turn over the motor and then go down to a level that is just above the bottom of the filter element. The motor will idle but when I give it more throttle, the motor starves for fuel.

    Normally it's almost full if it is primed up to start with.

      if it is not almost full (the fuel level is at the bottom of the filter element inside the filter assembly, so there is no way the motor can get the proper amont of fuel) and the primer bulb is good, what is the probable cause? Upper or lower fuel pump/s?????

        Possible a restriction in fuel supply, check hoses, filters and pickup in fuel tank.

          Changed pickup tube, anti siphon valve, fuel filter element, medium pressure filter, and fuel line from the tank to the motor. Took boat out this am and using a portable tank it ran good for about 3 minutes then started acting up. Ran at 4300 rpm and would not go any higher, normally can run WOT at 5400. Also would lose power at times at all rpm ranges. There is no fuel restiction from tank to filter assembly on the motor. Any idea's from here?

              Ejectors clogged, flow test showed two at 40% the other four were 10% clogged. VST fairly clean. Boat runs great now.
