Running a 1989 70 hp after running WOT for a while I started to lose power to 3000-3500 rmp max. Shut it down and restarted and ran fine, after a while it did it again, push the choke and it lifts the rpms. Any suggestions? New fuel lines and filter. Also hesitates when going from idle to WOT.

New fuel lines and filter is a good start..Could also be the fuel pump needing a rebuild..My 45hp kinda did that and i'm still figuring it out..
