I'm having trouble with BOTH of my twin 200HP Yamaha OX66 V6 Saltwater Series engines (2002 or 2001, not positive).
The engines start and idle fine but when I start to give them throttle they lose rpm/power. They then surge up and down until I pull back on throttle. Sometimes if I accelerate slow enough I can get up to 3200 rpms but not above and most of the time the problem occurs around 2200-2500rpms.
I thought it was fuel contamination/water in my fuel but I have ruled that out. I pumped a lot of gunk from my tanks, replaced fuel/water seperators many times, and replaced in line fuel filters. I have also ran the engines off of a 5 gallon tanks with good fresh gas and still experience the same problem.
I have replaced the spark plugs, and run a bunch of ring free and fuel injector cleaner through the gas but nothing seems to be working.
Any help would be much appreciated!
