Boat sat for a while got it running.... hook water up in shop sounds great ... took it to lake and it ran fine for 20 mins then was at idle went to go and it wouldn’t rev up and was chugging real bad so took it home. Did a tune up tried again same results. One day ran 4 hrs before this happened. Had the distributor points and condenser redone still had same issue. So took a gas can and rigged up electric pump to bypass fuel issues and it ran good for 30 mins or so thought it fixed it then went to load up and motor did it again started chugging real bad and won’t rev up and will die if you try
