I have a 1985 3.8 OMC that wont stop stalling. Let me start by saying I know very little about anything. I've had help from couple self taught engine tinkers. I took all gas out and replaced. I've changed fuel pump, fuel filter, installed inline fuel filter, fuel line, cleaned carb 3 times, water separator, changed oil, plugs, distributor, and coil. I REALLY dont think it's a gas issue at this point, theres gas flowing in carb nicely. I take boat out and runs perfect and smooth until it warms up, then stalls. Each time stalls quicker. Pretty consistent everytime, same thing. I was told points are fine. My next step is changing the black box or brain ( sorry if I sound naive). Its located in side of block kind of under cool. I am at total loss, its been a month of complete frustration. Please please anyone help if they have any ideas. Thanks!!!!!
