I'm not sure what the problem is after seeing the engine run, it is really confusing.
With the boat strapped down onto the trailer on the slipway with engine running/idling and in neutral gear you can rev the engine, no problem.
Trim the engine up so the prop is half out of the water and in forward gear it will also run to high rev's at WOT and it will kick up a big rooster tail of water. It runs and sounds perfect.
But trim down so the prop and snout are below the water and subsequently there is more resistance on the prop (and engine) and it chokes and stalls as soon as you try to rev it, in fact it wont rev, it just chokes and dies.
Checked and cleaned the carbs, still the same problem.
Fitted brand new stator, still the same problem.
