My dad's GM305 (5L) Volvo was doing same thing. Tuned up, rebuilt carb,
new coil, no better. Removed valve covers, no broken rockers or springs
but one lobe on cam is just about gone. Very hard to change cam without
pulling motor. Changed prop to bring rpm down. Has been exceptable for
three years now. He doesn't leave the dock a whole lot though.

I have a 2001 20'Glastron with a 5.0L Volvo SX. From 3/4 to WOT it
makes a loud Pop...Pop...Pop in the Carburetor. It does a pop about
every second. I have replaced the Power Valve in the two Barrel holley
Carb and rebuilt the carb but it did not change or fix the problem.

Any Ideas on what could be wrong?
