Question for the OMC God!!

[chumbucket]

I dunno. From what I heard, it sounded more like the motor was cutting out momentarily rather than surging. I still think it's a fuel related problem. But, I've been wrong once or twice in the past. Skools is definately more "skooled" than me in this area. That's for sure.
Skools; from what I heard, it seems to cut out momentarily only for a short time after iniatial startup for the day. Once it clears up, it didn't seem to happen again all day. Could a bad diaphragm in the fuel pump cause intermittent problems if it were getting aged a bit. I can imagine that upon startup, the diaphragm may be not so flexible. Then after running a bit more, start working more effectively. Is that even possible? I know I'm probably reaching a bit here. It just didn't seem to be electrical to me.
Like I said; I dunno. ???

It certainly does seem to run like a champ once it clears up though. Sounds good. Plenty of torque. I think it would make a good motor for MJ if he can get it for the $700.
