[QUOTE="ErnieLearns, post: 439888, member: 21993"] So after ruling out the fuel hose (tank to the motor) and since I replaced the fuel pump and was still having problems, I took a spare gas tank I have and put new gas in it and mixed the oil and the motor seemed to work good with the earmuffs on. Today I took it to the water to test it again and the outboard worked flawlessly. So the issue was either with the fuel tank itself (probably 5 years old) or the brass fitting that connects to the fuel tank for the hose. I am going to rule out the gas which came from the same pump where I got my new gas. Thanks for everyone's input. [/QUOTE]
