I searched the threads and got a little info but all very old threads. I just bought this boat. It has 86 125 force. It starts very easy accelerates great but when it get to almost full throttle it just starts missing like shutting down like it isnt getting fuel. new to boating so any help would be great. One thing I did notice that I am going to check is, there is a foam liner around to inside of the motor cover that is deteriorating. When I took the cover off, little pieces of foam were all over. Maybe getting in the carbs.

good call, see if it runs good with the cover off, then you have your answer,also check inside carbs to see if any foam went in them MOPARMAN

+1 on the foam getting into the engine. Remove all of the foam from the cowling then take the carbs off and make sure none is stuck on any of the reeds.
