Last weekend I took the Ally out for a run on the river. I am running a 2.5 Mercury 260 and it ran fine leaving the landing, I ran it up to about 5000 rpms and had to let out of it to meet another boat. When I tried to accelerate again it started stumbling and would barely make it to 3000 rpms. I could not plane the boat. I idled back to the landing and loaded the boat up. After I removed the cowl I found one of the vacuum lines off on the side of the motor by the fuel rail. I replaced the vacuum line and hooked it to a hose, the problem was still there. I am running a bracato computer and have had a similiar problem before. The last time I had to remove the horn and clean out the vacuum line going to the computer, I hope this solves my problem again. If anyone has any other suggestions please feel free to let me know. I appreciate any help with this problem before I resort to taking it to the shop.
