Installed Chris Carson reeds, went to the river and ran fine. Stopped for a while, started it back up and went a little ways then it started to bog down, no power, give it gas, suddenly it would take off, then like there was no power again. Seemed like it was running on only a few cylinders. Got home and checked the spark, it looked good on all 6. Fuel pump maybe? Took that apart and didnt see anything wrong. Diaphram looked ok. The new reeds maybe? This is a 87 merc 175. stock fuel pump. Any ideas? Thankx Gary
