I just bought a 1990 vip with the 2.3 cobra in it and have a few issues that maybe someone else has ran into.
1) it does not like reverse, it will engage reverse but if you try to give it some extra gas like taking it off the trailer it will die.
2) when i engage it in forward it putt putts a few seconds and then kicks in strong
3) when going around 5k rpm the motor is cutting out briefly every now and then and kicking right back up. it was pretty rought out the day it did this and dont know if that had any play in it or not.
pretty much i am looking for fixes for these or recomendations on where to check on the web or what to check on the boat.
thanks in advance
