I have a 2000 21 ft open bow with a mercruiser 8 cyl. After running for some time and going back to idle it will vapor lock and I have to remove the fuel filter and fill it with gas before start, Does anyone have a fix for this.

Almost impossible to vapor lock a boat fuel system. It doesn't get that hot. Much more likely you have either a fuel line leak between filter and tank, sucking air, or you have something plugged up.

Agree, that isn't VL

VL doesn't happen that fast, assuming it that fast

What is the motor serial number
